I got the three ultimate issues sitting on my pull. I might grab em next week
Still behind. My backlog is insane.
That game with cap looks amazing. Hopefully the story holds up to the visuals.
Absolutely. I'd go so far as to say the new Transformers series is fun and entertaining *despite* potentially sub par art! It's a great example of a title being written to and for its audience. When i pick up Transformers , Cobra COmmander , Duke or GI Joe i know what i should receive. When i purchased a comic book titled "Cobra Commander" I expected to see Cobra Commander win by any underhanded villainous means necessary.
And he does lol.
It's not hard LMAO.
Don't complain. Create.
For some characters particularly black heros like T'Challa, it IS hard because the writers being hired are too busy trying to push pet characters and the "setting" as the main character, as if that will work wheb the series has been about T'Challa for almost 60 years now
Depending on the writer (ESPECIALLY black writers) and black characters-you got someone who is trying to prove the blackness of the character more than telling a story.
Which means the chances of us seeing a black trope increases.
You get more New 52 Wallace West characters versus Static and Miles versions.
You get rape camps in Wakanda.
You get last two seasons of Moesha and Netflix's Good Times.
The thing is we don’t even know what this T’Challa can even do or if he’s enhanced by the herb and he was already about to get a power up. All we do know is that a gang of mooks is too much for him and that his suit can’t take bullets. We should at least see him fight Khonshu and Ra so we can at least get an idea of how strong he and they are. For all we know this power up could be some time thing or something like the Tiger God avatar thing and won’t be seen again or even KOTD where it doesn’t do or add anything of value and a waste of potential .
That what i meant when I said T'Challa, khonshu and Ra should've faced off in issue 2 already. We get to see T'Challas current power vs the big bads, both sides get Good showings. T'Challa realizing he needs more power, and Khonshu and Ra recognizing that while they may be more powerful than T'Challa, they are dealing with the full might of Wakanda behind him in which their forces can't match.
That would then drive into issue 3 with T'Challa going with Erik and
Storm to find more power while Kh and Ra, look to boost the strength of their own forces. Seriously seeing T'Challa getting handled by mooks gives me Coates vibes, and that's the last thing I want to have
T'Challa had an interesting strategic moment in today's Avengers 13, I quite enjoyed.
Lord Ewing *Praise His name! Uplift Him in song!* Your divine works will be remembered and glorified in worship for all eternity. Amen!
T'Challa can do this too. He doesn't have to throw punches so long as we see his master prep and planning, making people unwittingly defeat themselves or they watch as his plans come to fruition beating them. This isn't the same as Coates whole delegating while T'Challa does nothing, but rather T'Challa is shown manipulating instead of throwing the punch. We haven't even gotten that from Hill yet.
