This is the battle that this whole book was leading up to. The Wakandan Army vs. Tetu's forces. And it was...Disappointing. First what I did enjoy in the book was the dialogue and some of the panels illustrated by Sprouse was impressive, but the lack of scale in this battle is very underwhelming. This is supposed to be a WAR. A War supposed to have bodies on top of bodies, soldiers losing body parts, all out action, and lives are actually at stake here. I didn't feel any of that. (It doesn't have to be graphic or gruesome). We barely get that. Some of the actions scenes are good but I was expecting something along the lines of "Black Panther: Secret Invasion". In Black Panther #11 it's not a war it's a little battle. Remember the tanks and Wakandan airships in Black Panther #10? You see none of them in issue #11. For an all out war, I was expecting a couple of splash page, seeing the T'challa's armor on display doing amazing "force pushes", seeing Tetu turn into a giant humanoid plant attacking the golden city. I did like the ending when Black Panther and Shuri went to Necropolis but when did T'challa fix his relationship with his father. I thought T'chaka was still mad at T'challa. I just hope next issue can fix this.
