Marvel Action: Black Panther #1 IDW Quietly Releases the Best Black Panther Comic in Y
• Kyle Baker (Author) • Juan Samu (Pencils) • David Garcia Cruz (Colorist) • IDW (Publisher) I've never been the biggest Black Panther fan but I have enjoyed specific runs with the character. I have a few of the Jungle Action issues. The Christopher Priest run was amazing and I've always been partial to Reginald Hudlin's take on the character. The problem I have with Marvel's recent Black Panther series is that they boil the character and Wakanda down to their most pretentiou

Killmonger #2 (of 5) Review
• Bryan Edward Hill (Author) • Juan Ferreyra (Pencils-Cover) • Eduardo Ferreyra (Colorist) • Jeff Dekal (Variant Cover) • Marvel (Publisher) • Get it now (Amazon) I reviewed Killmonger #1 a few months back. I remember thinking it was a great start and then I fell off for whatever reason. What The hell was I thinking? This issue is amazing. The issue picks up after a time jump.

Shuri #1 Review
•Nnedi Okorafor (Author) • Leonardo Romero (Pencils) • Sam Spratt (Cover Artist) • Jordie Bellaire (Colorist) • Publisher (Marvel Comics) I often get asked why I don't review many Marvel comics. The main reason is that after reading a book from Marvel I usually feel mildly entertained, meh, or ripped off. Shuri #1 falls squarely in the Meh/Ripped off category. It's not the worst comic I've read this year (Borderlands) but I feel that the series should have been released eithe

Black Panther #3 Review
Writer: Ta-​Nehisi Coates Penciler: Daniel Acuna Cover Artists: Daniel Acuna, In-​Hyuk Lee THE INTERGALACTIC EMPIRE OF WAKANDA! “MANY THOUSANDS GONE,” PART 3 Black Panther #3 continues the "Wakanda in space arc" that has been going on since the series was relaunched a couple months ago. I'm i'm not completely sold on this story. The arc feels more Star Wars than Black Panther. This is not necessarily a bad thing. There are some aspects of the issue that work and others that
