Nah.. that ain't true at all, it's only poorly translated if the artist poorly translates it. Anything can look cool if the artist is creative about it. The problem is that artist these days don't go for creative but instead standard stuff. From guns to swords to martial arts combat. Read any action manga of all genre's and tell me even the most obscure stuff can look dynamic
Counter-example:
Even though most of the weapons seen didn't actually do anything in the battle, they were at least THERE.
Unlike Empyre, which basically just duplicated the Dora Milaje designs from the movies and did a bunch of CTRL-C & CTRL-V:
And, of course, the great force field falls to a bunch of unarmed plant aliens....
Yeah uhhhhh for the most advanced nation on the planet, that looks pretty damn weak. Where’s the artillery? The vehicles? Aerial support?
And I don't disagree that it can't be in the background as window dressing. Just like it was in Priests run. They didn't really do anything... but it may very well be in the background.
My point is that it's simply not going to matter in the story one way or the other.
The point of the force field is likely to omit that from the story (just like Infibity war) so it becomes a ground fight with the heroes and Dora's. Again, it's the genre.
The way I always understood it (and if I'm wrong please correct), the HSH is the equivalent of a super-vitamin only it lasts the rest of your life. The only thing genetics determines is if it KILLS you instantly the moment you take it or not. You can pass those genetics down, but you can't pass down the powers of the HSH.
But say you do have a genetic predisposition to withstand it and enjoy the abilities you get from it...its moot if you can't past the trials. Its also moot if you do pass the trials, ingest the HSH, but then you're not approved by Bast who has the power to mute those abilities.
How many Wakandans have/wear a Vibranium battle suit on par with T'Challa's?
Even Avengers EMH had mechs and blasters!
The J-man
Matt Murdock's cooler twin brother
I'd give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety's sake!
Thomas More - A Man for All Seasons
Interested in reading Daredevil? Not sure what to read next? Why not check out the Daredevil Book Club for some ideas?
No, it's pure laziness. Straight up. You can make a chess game interesting if you have the creativity and make it dynamic. Hardly an excuse to show the most advanced nation on earth look so poorly. Especially then when you have the enemy easily bypass their defense like it's nothing
Yes, but I don't remember their suits doing anything other than being white tbh. I don't remember any cloaking or anything
About the empyre thing... can't believe that is the art for a big event. Who was the artist? yeesh
I don't even think the MU spears shoot tank busting lasers. I think they are just sharp sticks.
Editor: The battle will take place in Wakanda... home to any tech you can make up thanks to being the most advanced technological place on earth that is a military powerhouse. Artist and Writers... you can make up whatever you want! Writers think of some crazy shit. Artist... draw something nuts!
Writers: can you draw some spears?
Artist: whoa thats nuts, how bout one clear spear and a bunch of fuzzy spears?
Writers: awesome
Editors: yeah good enough
All I care about is T'challa not dying and doing something with that sword. Please don't die. You die the first time and then it is easier for writes to kill you off again.
