Yes.
Because at the end of the day it's okay to not like or like Coates work. Same for every creator.
At least people here TRIED to read his run. So it's not folks making stuff up about their displeasure with his run. They did what all creators want-give the book a try.
While they are defending Coates-Coates got SUPERMAN. There will be a script by Coates and a movie from that script in theaters or HBO Max.
Coates-the writer of (at various times a decent trade seller) Black Panther and (also at times a decent trade seller) Cap America. He will probably end up doing a Superman book that ties in with that movie.
When we walk into the book store there are 10(ish) Black Panther trades by Coates along with Black Panther: Crew & WOW.
What do we NOT see? Storm by Coates on shelves. Black Panther fans will see Black Panther volume 8. Still waiting on Storm volume 3.
If Black Panther volume 8 excludes Storm-what next? Because that next writer is under ZERO obligation to include her. NONE. Even if he/she/They did include her-why settle for that?
That does not HELP the Storm brand. She needs her OWN title like Shuri has gotten.
