T'Challa: Black Panther Appreciation 2018

[butterflykyss]

As much as I love T'Challa in the Avengers, I think you can argue FF was really the best usage of him on a team.

It's a small intimate cast, where there was no overlap of redundancy as far as what T'Challa brought to the table. With no Captain AMerica or Iron Man around, there were specific things which T'CHalla was the default go-to guy for. He arguably shined better in that particular team setting than any other.

completely agree with this. I believe this is one of the biggest issues with many team comics and that is redundant powersets/characteristics within the same team. that is a great point.

That's stupid, since she's not Nigerian.

I'm sure we all have encountered people using names that are not representative of their country of origins. it's not really that stupid when you think of it that way.

Her mother is Kenyan. Her father is from Harlem. "I know lets give her a name that doesn't reflect either cultural legacy!" That's stupid as hell and (predictably) lazy on Claremont's part.

THE EARTH’S MOST HATED HEROES?!

After 700 issues of saving the world, you’d think the Avengers would be due some celebration. But instead the whole world seems to be gunning for them, especially Namor’s fearsome new Defenders of the Deep and the reimagined Russian Super-Soldiers of the Winter Guard. And that’s not to mention the shocking surprise the U.S. government has in store for our heroes. Plus: The all-new Agents of Wakanda! The mystery of the Avengers of 1,000,000 BC deepens! A key revelation concerning the resurrection of Wolverine! And the next startling new Avenger is revealed!

Wonder who will be on this team.

lololol alll of what u said is true. I just know people personally without names that are African in origins but are not from the country the names came from.

Super hero fodder lol

Can go hang out with Asha, Block, Vibraxas, the hickman kids, at the Wakanda forgotten pub lol

Huh, i figured the 1000000000000 BC stuff would have ended with the celestials. Guess not.

Well, sure if they live in the US or can't trace their family that makes sense and wouldn't bug me. I know a lot of people that have names that are borrowed because their parents wanted an "African" name. It's part of trying to reclaim some heritage even if it's not the right one.

But, Storm's mom would sure as hell know what the Swahili word for beauty is. Or they could have borrowed a name made famous for the Harlem Renaissance like say Zora or something like that.

The Ghost Rider who rides a mammoth get a spotlight on a future issue. I would guess each one will in turn.

I already added it to my pull list. They trying to make me drop it before the first issue comes out.

I saw a tweet from Nnedi a couple days ago. Shuri should be her last project unless they let her write Storm. Wants to focus on her own characters.

Well, at least they are acknowledging she was Panther. I still don't see why she would be unwilling to do it though.

Also, why doesn't the council just elect a new Black Panther.

That version of Black Panther does have a really cool look.
