@@ampocalypsew3883 I’m not in the “anti woke” train but this shit is too Preachy and boring, even for me, I believe john ridley say he’s not a writer but something else too, i miss Christopher Priest & david liss
The only thing that really made me smile in this issue was the fact my man's TChalla really told shuri he has "INFO" and a "Contingency Plan" for almost every KNOWN hero or villian he's come across. And it's actually fucking insane. I remember he was also talking to Echo. TChalla was basically telling and showing Enco all the Phoenix Force killers which was Thanos, Galactus. And a few others. But my man's TChalla has a contingency plan EVERYWHERE.
In all honesty he should know more due to him gaining multiversal knowledge from Galactus, but like always comic writers dont get their sources from previous issues
@ampocalypsew3883 yea I'm glad someone didn't forget about TChalla probing galactus mind. They're always finding a way to nerf some important characters
Thank bast that this run is ending in March. This is easy one of the worst black panther runs. It completely ignores a lot of stuff that was set up by other writers. Almost every character written in this story has been written out of character none of them sound like how they're supposed to it's just a bad read can't wait for it to be over.
As with many other readers of Black panther I feel like T'challa has been disrespected numerous times in the past years and is in decline in terms of importance within his own mythos(which is both bizarre & sad) . That being said I believe I found one good thing about the current run. I know a lot of us eventually want T'challa to be respected again so I feel this mostly Wakanda group could very well function as a Avengers for Wakanda. Now I know similar groups in the past have come about but non have been as organic to me. One thing I realized especially during the intergalactic empire war is how despite looking cool T'challa had to call on heroes mainly from outside Wakanda(storm,Luke cage, patriot etc). Not counting the buffalo soldier each of these people come from different aspects of Wakanda.Imani comes from the current democracy rulership of Wakanda.. Tosin hails from the countryside.. Gentle is both Wakandan and a Mutant on Krakoa..Omolola was a sleeper agent for Wakanda and Shuri/T'challa are royalty of the past Wakanda. Having this diverse group to me would help not only make Wakanda mythos more interesting but also wouldn't have to downplay T'challa especially if he leads them. All we would need is future arcs to show T'challa working his way back to being a good leader. Hell thinking about it how cool would it be if this group evolved into a team in charge of protecting the entire Wakandan galactic empire 😤.. (On a smaller note I also want the Dora Milaje to return as warriors and not continue Their hate towards T'challa. Actually could include them as part of T'challa comeback tour of getting in good graces with Wakanda)
I don't really get why the Dora hate T'Challa, but I due like the idea of a wakanda avengers, and stretching that to the intergalactic of Wakanda. I just hope we can get T'Challa to being the Emperor again, and have M'Baku be the leader for this wakanda Avengers
I live in a world where that is entirely possible but I hope he’d say otherwise lol. Maybe write it do T’Challa visits him at Kadesh and has a great, nuanced conversation.
This is the absolute worse Black Panther run. And I’m not sure what’s next but I’m pretty sure nothing will be as bad and damaging to T’Challa as this run. There’s a reason this shit is being cut at 15 issues. It’s not trash, it’s the trash juice that leaks out of the bottom of the bag.
This sad T'Challa better be an act, cuz this shit is pathetic lmaoo. The writers seem to deliberately ignore decades of established personality, skills, etc. iss wiild lol
Yeah this new series is weak, this writer is dumbing down T'challa and took everything from him, just to have him cry in front of the Avenger's before they kicked him off the team
Excellent Video ! You're absolutely right to show us how paranoid each of these two men can be. Eloquent and Well said! A Big Hello and a Big Thank You from Mesopotamia in the Republic of Iraq.
There are similarities between BP and Bats, but not nearly to the extent that people make it out to be. I actually think they’re more different than alike.
They really need to put tchalla at the intergalactic wakanda at some point cuz so far its just been on the backburner and tchalla isnt really doing anything besides goin on these adventures. But ill wait and see how this story ends
Speak on it, and spoken, not only that he looks like a dollar tree discount of Static shock. Kids: Mom I want Static shock Mom: We have Static shock at home Tosin
Can't be mad at Panther for having contingencies against the heroes of Marvel. Dude ran a very successful country that he's still part of. You want to say that he's Batman, T'Challa's a NATIONAL LEADER. Steve, Tony and Carol need to cop a squat, have a Coke and a smile and STFU. Each Avenger in that room was in that hot seat at one time or another running aspects of government. Again, they need to STFU. As far Batman vs. Black Panther comparisons go, all you have to is look at his teammate Aquaman for the proper example. Atlantis had invasion plans against the surface in they ever had to do it...and he had to take out was Batman. (During the New 52, of course.) Aquaman was also a NATIONAL LEADER.
@@ryice944 do you remember when asgard was on earth and Thor was running it, thn Ironman came in saying the us don't feel safe or someshit. Thn Thor was like, bitch didn't you and your fucking nerd friends clone me? Ironman was like 👁👄👁
Idk why they always try to make him like Batman, especially when they act completely different. T'Challa is willingly to kill in order to protect his people. He's not some gloomy downer/emo. If anything T'Challa is more like Aquaman or better yet a good version of Doom
Best thing is the fact that this God awful run is ending in March. I almost cried tears of joy when I saw the announcement. There's a reason this only lasted 15 issues and didn't even receive an annual. Cuz it's f*ckin trash. Point blank.

@@ampocalypsew3883 they do that on purpose to justify not printing more black panther comics . So they fine the weakest writer who's right in the so bad they'll put him on the comic having full knowledge that the writer is weak and he's not good give it about 15 issues. And the course of those 15 issues a lot of the core fan base will turn away then they would get on their bully pulpit and say that black comic starring black characters do not sell. But you set the character up for failure when you made sure you hired a less talented black writer instead of hiring a very intelligent and great black writer who knows how to write Great character and great stories.

yeah... i think people forget the entire purpose of superheroes.............when it comes to black panther..............every story arc is about him screwin up as a leader, husband, and such, getting dissed, spat on and then getting a major beat down.
This runs been pretty mild tbh there’s cool moments but T’Challa feels kinda out of character like the bit about him having contingencies on every hero and their fight against Agili and even the Jai reveal is okay but it’s just OK you know? Saw another comment say they need to put T’Challa w the intergalactic nation and that’d probably be way more interesting since they actually like him everyone just seems to hate him which even with some of the stuff he’s done being dumb is WILD to me
I hate how this writer is making it like that, yet T'Challa secretly wants to be King, its like storm with all these damn titles yet she doesn't want them bit still takes it
@@srinivasanbalaji4867 they been playing that in some issues but when he was stripped of his powers he begged Bast to give him purpose and serve his ppl, which she made him king of the dead
Naw. The batman comparison is a bit off base. Batman kept files on the league out of paranoia that they might go evil or get brainwashed, and even then it was only to subdue them and take them in alive in the hopes they can be helped later. Tchalla had whole ass murder files and a plan to take over earth if needed. Tchalla has always been a treacherous asshole since the time he invited the FF to visit and jumped them for no reason, or when he literally only joined the Avengers just to spy on them.
@@akhonaluthuli5931 I mean, with how the US uses there military for imperialism and to take resources from other countries under the guise of "spreading democracy " is that really the best comparison? Not to mention, and I thought we agreed on this a long time ago, Monarchies are Bad.
@@TubezThe1 the worlds not fair, and he's playing the game he was born into coz someone has too. Especially as the world would kill all his people to get what he has, the Avengers and his ain't shit citizens need too remember who it is that keeps the wolves at bay with how they are acting.
@@TubezThe1 T’Challa has never led Wakanda’s military in a war of aggression. He’s not some jingoistic warlord who wants to conquer the planet in the name of his people. He’s a humanitarian warrior-shaman who will defend his people ruthlessly but only if they’re threatened. This has been part of his character since the beginning. Him having contingencies against people like Namor or Iron Man is simply not the same as the US having an entire military industrial complex that is geared towards the exploitation of entire regions of this planet. When Wakandans get too big for their britches and think it’s their right to dictate to others how to live, like in this arc or in the Intergalactic Empire story, or in Killmonger’s numerous plays for the throne, he stomps them out personally because he’s explicitly anti-colonial and a paragon of blackness as a constructive force.
Honestly, I find it funny how anyone can read this and think that John Ridley hates T'Challa. Like this story is a culmination & deconstruction of Black Panther's whole history. Not only that, it's showing how growing up in Wakanda has actually affected his worldview, because despite how often people want to talk about it being a Utopia they always want to disregard the problems that it has, such as being xenophobic and isolationist. T'Challa adopted a lot of that sentiment when he was a kid and it arguably got worse when he became king, letting his paranoia drive him to make contingencies for other superheroes called "Killswitch". Hell it got revealed a long time ago that he had these contingencies in place, this is just the first time they all got loose. You can't really blame anyone for their anger towards him when it seems he never trusted any of them in the first place. Yes he had a duty to his people, but that doesn't mean some of those decisions wouldn't come back to bite him in the ass.
While that's kinda true JR doesn't do his research when it comes to the character, ever sense T'Challa reveal wakanda to the world he has been spending a lot of time outside of his kingdom. And with that Bast have been testing him on how wakanda have not been helping their ppl (Black ppl) and while T'Challa did in fact only join the avengers just to make sure they wouldn't be a threat to his country. JR has ignored T'Challa's development
@@htownboss6422 yeah the dude basically made it where T'Challa seems Incompetent in his own abilities, broke up Storm and T'Challa (again) and seemingly made him gay without any explanation or build up which is a hateful move on not only the character but also the gay community specifically the black gay community
@@ampocalypsew3883 yeah they should have named this run black panther out of character because literally every single character in this run is out of character.T'challa has went against threats way more deadly and more tactile than the one he's going against in this run yet he seems like he doesn't know what to do it makes no f****** sense.

@@ampocalypsew3883 yeah they should have named this run black panther out of character because literally every single character in this run is out of character.T'challa has went against threats way more deadly and more tactile than the one he's going against in this run yet he seems like he doesn't know what to do it makes no f****** sense. We're talking about the guy that literally stopped the Symbiote God knull from invading wakanda which led to wakanda being the only place left on Earth that was not overrun. But he's struggling with one guy in this run it makes no f****** sense
@@htownboss6422 nor to mention that Buffalo bullshit man was laughable, nor to mention why would he struggle against someone like him. Regardless if he had something that could render vibranium useless
They both rich and care about their aeaa code.
This whole black panther run is thrash terrible writing
