Another New Best Book (To Me At Least)


I had heard that the new run of Black Panther was pretty good, but not being familiar with the character, I kind of wrote it off. I never read much Marvel when I was a kid, except for X-Men, and never Avengers. Add to that, he just never made any sense to me. How does a supposed monarch get all this time to go off and play super-hero in another country, halfway around the world from his own. It just didn't make sense. But I read the two Civil War issues that just came out, and I must say I was really, really impressed.

The current issue was probably the best Civil War issue I had read to date. It was that good! It also made me think, if this was that good, how good might the rest of the series be? And don't get me wrong, it does have some week points, but overall, really fantastic. I think the first book, Who Is The Black Panther is going to be one of my new favorites. Its a brilliant stand alone story that tells you absolutely everything you need to know about the character and his entire world. Just what comics needs more of really.
