I just read Black Panther is part of the infinity war shyt that's supposed to be happening soon. Couple questions...

1. How are they gonna have a movie with 30 fukking characters in it and it not a complete mess? Was the comic book like this?

2. And how exactly are people like Black Panther, Captain America, Black Widow, Ant-man etc supposed to fight thanos when he's pretty much Jesus?

:wow: man im absolutely jealous of kids these days. I grew up wishing for a black superhero and all I got was fukking blank man and steel. Wesley Snipes paved the way brehs:salute:


Man we've come such a long way but I commend all those brothas for trying. It was so hard trying to get Black Superhero films made. To the point that brothas created their own original films. Which was good thing too because we weren't waiting for the system to say yes. (Meteroman, Blankman and Hancock are not based on comics) Marvel owes a lot of the success for it's resurgence in the 2000's to "Blade" as well.

Black Panther isn't Black Batman.

In the Priests run of the comics, Martin Freeman's character, Everet Ross tell us that people tend to forget that T'Challa isn't a superhero. He is a king that runs the wealthiest and one of the most technologically advanced nations in the world. This is a dude who has contingency plans for if fukking Galactus shows up to Wakanda. Almost every decision he makes is for the sake of his country and sometimes those decisions go against the grain of superhero tropes. Like Batman keeps Joker alive after doing the most demonic shyt in existence, but Black Panther doesn't play that shyt.

Why are you entertaining any of that fukk shyt, fam?:francis:Black Panther to me is as great a character, if not greater than Batman. The amount of culture connected to the character is nearly unparalleled in comics. He can match wits with some of the most genius characters in the Marvel universe. The mere fact that he's a king deeply impacts every single choice he has to make and molds his character. Batman is dope, don't get me wrong, but Black Panther is far more complex. The only real comparison you could make is that they both don't have powers, wear black suits, and rely on technology. But then I could be lazy and say Black Panther is just black Ironman.

Considering Batman is THE most iconic superhero of all time, I don't see it as an offensive diss. BP does share a few similarities to Bats. He's probably more of Marvel equivalent to him than Stark is.
