Reviews

[Jillian · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have been reading this Black Panther run since the beginning, and I couldn't help but wonder where all of this would lead. Would T'Challa be able to keep his country together? Would Tetu manage to permanently divide Wakanda? What about the Midnight Angels? When Shuri was brought back, only more questions were raised. Who would be in charge now: T'Challa or Shuri?

This issue felt like it was supposed to wrap up at least some of this plotlines, but I only have m0re questions. Coates is a very evil man who ends his issues on cliffhangers. Why was Shuri meeting with the Midnight Angels? Did T'Challa know? Is this leading up to a sibling showdown? Black Panther is a consistently engaging series, and I highly recommend it.

BP

BP gives another world prospective. Coates has provided historical of the beauty and sophistication of African nations on the continent. Truly these untold stories of Africa's brilliance and philosophy provides inspiration and hope of heroes and heroines, who with super powers, do an amazing job in promoting community and inclusiveness.

I love that they addressed rape in revolutions.

Just about perfect balance between bringing storylines to a close and raising new questions about the future of the kingdom. Fierce!

[Christopher · Rating 2 out of 5]

Well, the revolution is over. Because an academic made a SPEECH. (best part being that Panther tells Changamire that he only has TWO MINUTES of airtime). And that's sufficient. Methinks Wakandans are easily persuadable people...

I get the feeling this is Coates' dream journal come to life.

War at the gate.

Good color artwork. One of three hundred comics marvel gave out on national read a book day, Sept six. A good finale. T'challa wins a victory for the hearts and minds of the people.

Good Read

Now, its a new beginning and where will all of this lead. Some many questions with no answers yet. Cliffhanger ending...really Mr.Coates.

This went by quicker than I expected.

What a phenomenal conclusion to this arc. Shuri and Changamire’s speeches were great, and so was the final battle.
