I mean people tried, and they tried hard, to play up Coates version as this deep, cerebral, "realistic" version and even made articles about how Tchalla was a "Weak protagonist" in the sense that he wasn't above asking for help (which was funny because the issue the article was about, Rise 3, completely contradicted the entire article) and all this stuff.
Then the movie dropped, re-established that Tchalla ain't one to frak with, then all of a sudden we getting Okoye, Nu-Nakia, Wakanda forever salutes and s3 T'Challa has more base in his voice then shown since Coates got on the book. On top of Redjack KILLIN IT on the cartoon side with our T'Challa, and the rest of the MU showing the real T'Challa... Coates either has to hop on the train or get left at the station
