[QUOTE=ExcelsiorPrime;51258]When hasn't Surfer been Jobbed?[/QUOTE]
Yeah he's been "jobbing" since his first interactions with earthlings.
I finally finished my Priest Black Panther run during the back issue sales of Free comic book day - even found the dreaded #23 Deadpool issue. Ive been picking away at this run literally for years. Ive read and re-read #1-20 a few times, now I can finally get to reading the full thing.
Are there any other BP runs that even compare - or is Priest's still the pinnacle? Its crazy the full thing isnt collected in trades yet. I am enjoying BP's appearances in New Avengers. The character is finally getting some major air time.

Priest is still the best but McGregor's run was excellent.
[QUOTE=Seraphan;48681]Well. :smile:
I was actually thinking that I want my old one back. lol.
Decent showing from Jason Aaron using T'challa. Pleasant surprise, but still guarded.[/QUOTE]
Yea me too. I liked it though.
I am scarred for T'challa when he gets around an X-book character (Emma)... especially one as snarky as she is AND who lead to Wakanda being swamped with water.
And, as far as I remember, Emma's telepathy is still broken right? What use is she then?

Nrama: Fury’s on the case here, but also working parallel to him – and perhaps under the radar of Nick and Captain America – is Black Panther. It’s intriguing to see Panther being positioned in such a strong and prominent manner in one of Marvel’s summer event series, so can you talk about T’Challa’s role here and how it came to be?
Brevoort: The Panther is a long-storied and cool character. T’Challa, and the other characters he leads on this separate track, tend to be characters who haven’t had as much of a chance in the spotlight of big events as others. T’Challa appeared to Jason as someone specifically to use for putting together an investigation and looking into what may actually be going on. He has specific skills for this kind of thing, just as Doctor Strange has knowledge of sorcery and interdimensional travel, and Ant-Man has the ability to shrink down to the Microverse.
Black Panther is often overlooked for this, but he possesses an intellect on par with Tony Stark, Reed Richards, and the other smartest people in the Marvel Universe. And in addition to that he’s also trained as a hunter. He too has a bunch of very specific skills, and he a perfect guy to put in charge as he’s a natural leader. He’s led people and been a King, and is comfortably with authority and being in control. When you look at the disparate characters coming into play in this concurrent investigation, putting a character like Black Panther at the forefront of it makes a certain amount of sense.
Nrama: And the person who puts Black Panther on the trail is another shadowy individual, but in this case also wields a cylindrical glowing green object – seemingly the same substance as Cap believes the bullet was that killed the Watcher. The shadowy person seemingly has short blonde hair and seems to know about the murder, leading some to assume it might be Captain America playing two fronts here. Can you say anything about this third shadowy figure in Original Sin #1?

Brevoort: I can say he’s shadowy for a reason, and in the cast page of Original Sin #2 he is listed as “Mysterious Boss.” That much I can confirm. [laughs]
He’s the guy that calls T’Challa and the others into the mix. Just like the two at the end of the issue, I don’t want to spoil anything. Again, Marvel fans are super sharp, and trying to stay one step ahead of them in putting a story together is very difficult because there are so many of them. It only takes one person on the internet out in the middle of nowhere to come up with one piece of the puzzle, then someone else thousands of miles away picks up on it and figures out a second piece to add to it, leading to fans figuring out everything. So when it comes to things like that, these Q&A sessions will probably be very sparse with new information because I feel like we’ve already said and shown a lot of stuff; possibly more stuff than is safe or wise, especially since our fans are so razor sharp.
I have no doubt that I could go online right now and there would be blog posts, forum posts, whatever, which someone figuring out exactly who Mysterious Boss is.[/I][/B][/I][/U][/I][/B][/I][/I][/I][/I][/I][/I]
So it definitely was no Fury that called T'challa.
Interesting.
Who in the MU would call T'challa first about leading a secret, hunt for the killer?

So far, mosst of the pics posted by the CBB alumni have garnered positive responses, so I guess we're all doing something right. :cool:
[QUOTE=D. Strong;50303]Still in NA and now in Original Sin.[/QUOTE]
That's great. I'm really looking forward to the Original Sin. Looked very interesting.
[QUOTE=D. Strong;50303]Still in NA and now in Original Sin.
I was planning on riding it out whether it was bad or good. For different reasons though. I'm glad that it at least appears to be "ok" at first glance, so I won't be alone in reading it.[/QUOTE]
Original Sin get's no endorsement from me until it's completion.
Afterall, it's the same writer who's written T'Challa like this...

So forgive me for not being particularly excited about whatever he's doing with T'Challa's character now.
Aaron (much like Maberry) had his chance and blew it as far as I'm concerned, so regardless of how he chooses to portray T'Challa now, in the wake of his AvX spawned devaluation of the character, it's a bit late in the day for Aaron to get props from moi.

Definintely understandable.
Just wait til he gets around Emma. I am fearful of that.
I'll remain very cautiously optimistic. Aaron rights my favorite book right now (Thor) and who wrote one of my favorite stories of all time (BP SI)... but he has written some of the most disgusting panels about BP out the last few years.
So... i am proceeding with caution. I would buy this event anyway because I am intrigued with the story, I just hope T'challa isn't chumped.
I take that back... screw "isnt chumped"... I hope T'challa is SHOW CASED for once positively in an event.
Don't break my heart Aaron.
