I think he looks best with a clean edge and clean shaved, or his current ultimate look with the nice edge with the beard

So what would you do, if tomorrow you were given the reigns of a new Black Panther book? What would be 5 things you would do, or set about doing, on day 1?
(You can retcon or outright ignore things that have happened in prior runs, just like any writer, but you can't just destroy or magically unmake it.)
What do you do?
1. Id set up a new Cabal, bringing back Old BP villains as a Baron Macabre, King cadaver, Madam Slay, and Solomon, Prey. With some new villains. They would start out by talking about how dangerous T'Challa is and after recent rumblings, the Wakandans (quite stupidly) exiled him from Wakanda.
2. This new Cabal would kill off nearly all the new pet OCs added in recent years. Tosin, buffalo soldier, the MA, Omolola, and eventually Folasade.
3. Standardize T'Challas base tool set, color coded, and generally used for specific types of situations or he isn't using force push against regular fodder and letting them punch him, it's used for class 100+ types or to augment his speed, jumping capabilities etc, or for crowd control
4. Mother (from Coates run) is a villain, an evil deity that wad trapped in the djala. She's the reason Wakandans are acting stupid and T'Challa seemed off these last several runs. This is who the new Cabal is following, she is pissed because She was sealed away by Bashenga and T'Challa is his descendant, she manipulated Shuri by giving her some of her power to help weaken the Djalia so she could escape it when T'Challa destroyed it
5. T'Challa is going to go through a complete redemption arc, realize some of the stupid stuff he has said (such as Coates retcon of joining the avengers to learn from them, begging storm for forgiveness etc) was due to this deity, and he is going to reestablish himself as the most dangerous & shrewdest man alive, a polymath genius and THE ultimate strategist

In short
1. The new democratic Republic of wakanda is running low on resources due to mismanagement and greed so they vote to expand their territory through aggression. Leading to global conflict and a potential World war allying with Atlantis and Latvertia.
2. Id use a lot of the side characters introduced to the last three runs As Leaders of attack Squads, and then the better side characters of past as secret allies of T'Challa inside Wakanda.
3 . Evil Wakanda on the brink of victory, T'Challa organizes a global counter attack. Bad side characters killed on various battlefields around the world, big bad pulling strings since the beginning of Coates run (end of secrect wars) is Doom, killmonger, or Namor. T'Challa solo's in final battle and saves the day, status quo of noble king restored.

I was watching Black Comic Lords on Youtube where they were trying to put a positive spin on Ridley's BP run. I just smh. I don't see how they read what happened in the run and tried to justify it.
I saw Redjack pop in and give a few replies. Thank you sir.
So, Ewing's run ends, then we get the BP Blood Hunt mini. Her run ends in March, we skip April and BP's mini begins in May and ends in July. So will Marvel skip another month and relaunch a new BP solo in Sept? Or wait until early 2025 for a new series?
I wonder if anything out of Blood Hunt will lead to a change the current status quo?
