This is a good point. Thanos version of "death" could easily be regarded as erasing/remove people instead of killing.
I wish say that another element they are going to have to explain (not that it'll be hard) is how they get more heart shaped herbs.
Also how will Coogler handle non tribal action scenes. Waterfall scenes were the best, but not sure he can go to that well anymore.

Yes, if someone reassembled the gems, he and his army could come back.
They did something similar with him after secret wars. HmInsted of coming back with everyone else, he existed in limbo outside of time. That would explain why nobody aged and they reappeared in the same place they disappeared.
But I've though that part didn't make sense. Should Tony have just put them back in the time they're from? Because with Thanos gone from the past, an alternative timeline exist where he never did a snap.

That would be a fun arc. I'm really hoping Achebe gets a resurgence this next run. His dynamic with T'Challa and the big brain geopolitical chess he brings is just the kind of thing that would fit the vibe Ridley's going for. I actually wouldn't be shocked if he was this shadowy threat going after Wakandan agents.
Hmm, yeah, dusting off Achebe could be something. I'd also be fine with bringing in Moses Magnum as both a physical and geopolitical threat, insofar as his dealing in dangerous weapons tech with various bad actors around the world could seriously destabilize things, especially once it got closer to Wakanda.
The spider is always on the hunt.
Yea Achebe and Moses Magnum seem like good fits for BP rogues that can be elevated in the Ridley era. Besides his global resources, intelligence, and political acumen, the other thing that Moses brings to the table that's pretty unique is that he completely outclasses T'Challa in straight up combat. That's kinda rare since he's normally stuck fighting low level superhumans and martial artists.
The last time he took on a threat that legitimately outmatched him powerwise was the Adversary, but T'Challa didn't actually do much against him other than pray to Storm lol. Hopefully if Magnum gets a push we can see him push T'Challa's intellect and strategic mind to the brink as he tries to find a way around what should be omega-level earth/seismic manipulation powers. Him being a weapon developer with the means to destabilize entire nations adds to his appeal and it still confuses me why he hasn't been given a major push despite everything he's capable of if written to even a fraction of his potential.
Yea, definitely a low point for T'Challa even though it did something neat for his ex lol. Thankfully it seems like Adversary won't be much of a factor in this relaunch and that if T'Challa runs into him or any being of that level he won't be relying on anything but his wits and skills, the way it has always been. Magnum is a really cool villain and if we're looking for a big BP story arc that doesn't depend on stuff from another mythos he's a good pick for an event villain.
