Third title in Titan Books' Marvel fiction reissue program, featuring the Black Panther. HE'S KNOWN AS THE BLACK PANTHER. HIS HOME IS WAKANDA. WELCOME TO T'CHALLA'S WORLD. The African nation of Wakanda stood alone as an unconquerable land filled with incredible technological advancements for ten centuries. T'Challa, the latest in a lineage of warrior-kings, is the Black Panther, endowed with enhanced speed and strength, along with a suit made of the indestructible metal that secured his country's future: Vibranium. Now, outsiders have returned to plunder Wakanda's riches-including its store of the rare metal. Leading this brutal assault is Klaw, an assassin with the blood of T'Challa's father on his hands. Klaw brings with him a powerful army of super-powered mercenaries, all hell-bent on raining death and destruction on this pristine land. CAN THE BLACK PANTHER PREVAIL AGAINST SUCH A MASSIVE INVADING FORCE? No library descriptions found. |

Though I really enjoyed this book, the opening framing device was a tad over the top with the aggressive US general wanting to put US Military might into Wakanda's territory and the right-wing, white supremacist attack on the mall in Washington, DC. The two characters who are saved by the Black Panther and his Dora Milaje and those white supremacists just flat disappear from the narrative afterword, so I'm not sure what the point of them being there was really, other than to show off the Black Panther's agility and to give some conflict for the characters to react against.
Once you get past those opening chapters, however, there's a really solid narrative to enjoy, with a introductions to various characters who make up the BP universe, such as Shuri, Nakia, Okoye, among other, as well as Klaw, Radioactive Man, and the Rhino. Also a petty dictator with delusions historical precedent. The action is great, I learned more about vibranium and the country of Wakanda and over all just enjoyed a decent book. ( )
