One of the strengths of Hickman is that as was the case with FF and F4 and probably is the case here he has his total run plotted and mapped out before he writes the first issue. So there should not be random alterations things put in to look cool that would leave T'challa in some weird spot. Also the benefit of a plot focused long range focused writer like Hickman is that even though fights might fewer and depicted more in overview form the characters get written properly and you are not left wondering as to how or why characters are doing whatever it is they are doing. NA has the longest plot/slowest pacing of any of the books Hickman has written/is writing so far so the end will be most likely be strong and leave those involved in good positions.
