    No, Sky-Fathers are usually gods credited with creating humanity/existence. In her region that would be either Ra or one of the other creation gods.

    Thank you for the clarification. No sarcasm intended.

If you are interested in viewing it listen at 13:00 through 15:00 minutes of this video, the viewers have an interesting comparison of Priest to Coates.

    I was with them then they lost me on the part where they said Coates actually improves.. there isn't any "improvement" until S2 and that quickly falls back into his tired tropes. He is less prose driven but he still has the same tropes he follows. Lecture T'Challa, blame T'Challa for the latest woes, sideline T'Challa for someone else, and take the wind out of T'Challas sail's when he should have Bass in his voice

    In the current Marvel take on the Egyptian pantheon the Sky-Father equivalent is Osiris (who took over from Geb, who took over from Shu, who took over from Ra).

    In the case of the pre-Coates Orishas (aka the Vodu) the Sky-Father is Buluku, aka Olurun and others:

    Interestingly, the Egyptian pantheon is one of the few that DOES have a sky goddess (and a male Earth god): Nut, the sister/wife of the aforementioned Geb.

    http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/nuthelio.htm

    She's sort of retired, tho.

    That's pretty cool, though. Shame she's retired; a good story could probably be made of her coming back into the game, so to speak.

    The Egyptian myths are weird. It's the only mythos I'm aware of where the rulership of the gods is actually dynastic. The only one that comes close is the Chinese pantheon... but in that case, the predecessor existed before the myths and the successor hasn't arrived yet.

    Yeah, I see what you're saying. But she did say if she had read Coates run before Priest's, that she would not be a fan of Black Panther. In the other video when they review Strum Und Drang, you should hear how she gushes over T'Challa (it's at the times I mentioned).

    Me and you both my brother.

    If someone had told me that a time would come when I of all people, would go for three days let alone, three full years without purchasing a single issue of a Black Panther solo book, I would have laughed in their face.

    I'll gladly go another two years of boycotting Coates rubbish and put the money saved towards more appropriate books that aren't buttressed by his particular brand of slave mentality/racially charged low expectation fare.
