Black Panther fans are getting fed up with how badly Marvel is handling one of their greatest characters... the Black Panther!
Probably the biggest topic concerning the Black Panther is what direction he's headed. Where is Marvel going with him? Will he ever return to his status as ruler of the world's most advanced civilization? Should he?
The truth is that David Liss has done a great job with T'Challa so far but there's so much that he and Marvel aren't doing...
So here's my top three list:
1. Marvel still hasn't dealt with the aftermath of Doom War.
Did Doom really give up that easily? He just packed up and went home? Isn't he angry? Doesn't he want revenge? What is Shadow Physics? Why isn't T'Challa exploring it's possibilities right now? Now that Wakanda has lost it's primary source of income, how will the citizens react to the loss of jobs, increase of crime rate and loss of technology? If Shuri is fighting Klaw, who is rulling the country? With the country vulnerable doesn't anyone want to invade?
2. Marvel still hasn't told us what life is like in Wakanda.
What does Wakanda really look like? How big is it? How does the government work? What about the different tribes? What about the different cults (Lion, White Gorilla, Crocodile)? If the Panther God showed up when vibranium did will she be leaving now that it's gone? Does Wakanda have any new heroes in training ( Almost all the current ones died in this storyline)? What's it like being a mutant in Wakanda? is Storm training or helping them?
3. Marvel still hasn't invested in making Storm and T'Challa's marriage feel genuine.
How often do they see each other? Do they have shared estates and where are they located? Do they plan on having children? Will T'Challa ever spend time with the X-men?
So am i the only one that's waiting for answers to these questions? Will Marvel ever take my favorite character seriously? Comment below...
