Jun 27, 2019I love the subtle connections to the Shuri book but can't wait for the inevitable convergence. I'm not really sold on the side story of Achebe and Farouk's plan with the M'Kraan crystal but only time will tell. The art is beautiful and eye-catching. The more traditional comic art fits well with the story at this point. Acuna is masterful but the panels and faces tell the story in a way I'm used to. Read Full Review

May 29, 2019This is another example from the current Black Panther run of a chapter that might function well as part of a collection, but lags as a single installment. Read Full Review
