Marvel presents: Exiled Kings or Kings of Exile. If it is T'Challa and Namor going on adventures in a Buddy copesque comic that repairs the relationship ad they talk about how everything they did for their nations and now they are trying to move on without them and how they are relieved to some degree being free form the responsibility.
If they finally get back to Priest/ Hudlin level of respect again that would be a win

T'challa's Greatest Comic Book Feats: http://blackpanthermarvel.blogspot.c...her-feats.html
I think X-Men Red indicated that Wakanda/IGEW did a Portugal/Brazil-style split before T’Challa was formally ousted hence him mentioning a ‘transition of power’ for why he was at the emergency council session where Storm dragged* him over Gentlr
Kind of surprised Gherke/Hanuman/Gorilla God hasn’t taken issue with the Jabbari still being under military occupation by a Dora Junta though
* Al Ewing’s a professional; but he’s been pretty clear that he doesn’t consider anyone who holds their current RW prominence to the MCU to be ‘real’ Marvel characters, and never ceases to treat the Avengers as upjumped b-lost cops (incl. T’Challa)
Wasn't there a secret wars book that just came out and one of the avengers was supposed to be a skrull?
I would take this in a heartbeat. Though it doesn't explain why T'Challa is such a punk ass in his own book under Coates and Ridleys pen, at the very least it can clean up some of the mess, AND it has continuity ties to both the comics and MCU (since they love themselves that synergy) and allows for T'Challa to get
clear solid wins ABD some feats because Super skrulls can be beefed up as strong as you want, or have any marvel heroes powers without having people complaining that their favorite is getting jobbed or some isht
A leader? Hell no, of the last 9 years have taught us anything, it's that ALL these pet OCs introduced are absolute shit leaders and if written by a competent writer to course correct the Franchise, ALL these folks would get killed off because they are shitty leaders who would have to get destroyed to bring T'Challa back to show why he is King and BP. COULD become T'Challas protege... After he got the biggiest humbling ass whooping of his life to check his dumbass and allows him to see why T'Challa was right and he is wrong... But I'd prefer he was sacrificed like a lamb in the process to bring T'Challa back to status quo and o
Above personally
When does this dude's run end on BP, because got-diggity-damn this is crap on top of a crap cake.
We gonna take bets on how much lower Ridley will try to take T'Challa? How he is going to end his shit run with the grandslam of low Showings for T'Challa? Because we all know he is NOT going to give him a win, he is going to end this at the lowest point possible. What else do we think he is going to lose? Think Bast going to show up and strip him of his power?
He’s definitely not beating Jhai. Unless the synopsis for 14 is misleading, T’Challa is going to try and fight Namor who will possibly dish out the most humiliating beating T’Challa endured in the series so far. Some crying afterwards and why he’s terrible etc. Try to stop Jhai in the final issue while injured, get beat up some more. Omo might actually be the one to stop Jhai or at least distract him until T’Challa or Tosin takes him. It’ll end with T’Challa agreeing with the decision to banish him and taking away his citizenship, possibly say that the PM is the leader that Wakanda needs and that he never could be and that Tosin is the future before telling him to be a better protector than he was. I’m expecting something like that.
I don’t see Ridley letting T’Challa beat Namor or Jhai unless it’s because of someone else’s intervention. The only ones to come out looking good will be Tosin and Omo.
After I skimmed Ridley's reasoning for making Jace half-Asian in DC Power I decided to not buy that book, same as I'm not supporting Marvel's Voices this month. There's nothing wrong with Ridley wanting representation, and primarily for his biracial son (and other biracial kids), but it's how you go about it. He could've just had Lucius and Jace's birth mother not work out for a less toxic reason and then he marries his current wife, and they lag, for whatever reason, in not telling him about his biological mother. Ridley didn't have to put dirt on Lucius's name to make Jace half-Asian. But that's the way Ridley seems to write Black males, and now his relative kid gloves when it comes to Jace makes more sense now if Ridley had envisioned him as being half-Black all along (as well as being a proxy for his son). Being half-Black perhaps makes him less toxic as a Black male and a bit more competent (not completely, but a bit more).
I was reading the Next Batman: Future State graphic novel and I don't know if it's Ridley's hand or not, but they had Luke basically being villainous in that. I don't know how much of this is once again just coming from Ridley, or if he aligns with where DC want to take Lucius and Luke.
