    Meta wise though, bad **** happens to T'challa/WK beccause he is the only BP with stories being written about him. A lot more bad stuff can happen (including bad writers) in 200 issues vs 8

    Also, T'challa has faced universal extinction level events, previous BP's faced.... guns lol

    I actually found Hawkeye the most annoying since he was first introduced in the season. He had attitude for no reason. I can forgive Natasha if my theory about her proves to be correct. Still I don't know how T'Challa ever forgives some of the Avengers after this.The relationship with Thor, Hawkeye & Tony is dead and buried at this point.

    i really don't think people understand wha they're saying when they say Wakanda has been isolated from the rest of the world for 10K years and that their technology is founded upon access to an element that is unique to them, without outside influence or interference.

    they might as well be the Kree by comparison to other human civilizations. They have more in common with the Eternals or the Inhumans than they do with ANY normal human nation or normal human genius.

    seriously. ya gotta think these things all the way through.
    My takeaway has always been (in a post-Christopher Priest world) that T'Challa can pretty much do anything Stark can do, but, as a practical matter, they don't want to steal Iron Man's thunder (it's sort of a Superman on the Justice League thing where they don't play up his speed so the Flash doesn't feel bad). But, when they go head-to-head, the Black Panther usually shines as having superior tech and the upper hand.

    I tend to agree with your description of Wakanda, but I'll say the two biggest comparisons for me are Attilan and Atlantis. I'll note that when the Inhumans go superhero, they generally don't show off their tech either. And the same is true with Namor to the point that I'm honestly not sure what their tech level is.

    It's almost ridiculous to try and compare T'Challa to any other BP, because Shuri aside he's the only one that even remotely matters. The rest are just window dressing to his mythos. They exist purely to add a LITTLE bit of depth to his stories. Not that they're not fun and interesting in their own right but the point should never be for them to outshine him. When that starts happening, they're doing something wrong.

    Yeah, I think armor is just Iron Man's thing and to a degree that needs to be respected. Plus, Stark uses armor basically 24/7 in combat so it makes sense that in a practical functional sense he should have the best armor.

    Whenever Stark and T'Challa throw down, T'Challa pretty much always outsmarts and out techs him anyways so having Stark be THE armor guy really isn't conceding much.

The same Illuminati that numbered Namor, sworn enemy of Wakanda, amongst its membership. And to make matters worse, T'challa blatantly lied to Shuri about reasons for Thanos and his Obsidian Order's minions attacking Wakanda in search of Infinity Gems.

    T'challa stockpiled WMD's and extinction level extraterrestrials imprisoned within the Necropolis which upon their eventual escape, led to Wakanda almost being wiped out of existence.

    All of that was on T'challa but for some odd reason, some choose to throw shade on Shuri for the stupidity and dedication to outsiders epitomised by her supposedly genius level intellectual brother.

    I'm sorry, but under this set of circumstances, I see ZERO reason to view T'challa as being the greatest BP of all time.

    When a writer comes along who (like Hudlin, Liss or Redjack) to actually write T'challa to his full capacity, my views will change but until that happens, no cigar.

    No joke Marvel is doing for the most part what it has always done...giving us the appearance of a strong Black Male lead but subsequently made him their ideal(safe) version of how they feel he should act.

    Thing is, I'm not talking about any story in particular, or rmthe last 8+ years of deconstruction. I'm talking about, in general, T'Challa should be shown as the GOAT. Not by making the others look bad, but by having key factors be it in his origin, or in some major story going forward, that he has a huge achievement for the betterment of Wakanda. Something no other BP has done and secures his legacy as the greatest

    They've never really thrown down in continuity. The Priest thing was mostly a fake-out, with Stark having been revealed to have taken a hint from a politician Panther manipulated to play-act at being his enemy. A Panther from the future did beat a mind-controlled alternate Iron Man, but, well, key words there being future and mind control and alternate.

    Technically he wasn't "Black Panther" for all these things. He was pseudo Black Panther.

    What’s the theory about Natasha. And personally I hope T’challa doesn’t forgive any of the avengers after all the bullshit they put him through. But if a reconciliation happens, the avengers REALLY need to work for it.

    Natasha is Zanda was an early theory. Not sure if that is what Jabare is referencing.

    In Hudlin's run he had Tchalla punch out Tony and slash his armor with the ebony blade. It was a quick fight but T'Challa trashed Tony

    Every time off the top of my head that T'challa and Tony have had fisticuffs, Tony has caught those hands and/or a verbal spanking.

    I could be wrong though, I don't read his solo books very often

    Ebony blade, a plot-device that wasn't created by T'Challa. There's always huge asterisks, like alternate timelines and plot-devices created by Ultron, or Ebony Blades. T'Challa has no clean wins over Iron Man.
