Lan Medina does an amazing job with the art in this issue. The characters look great and the action is well done. Read Full Review

This is a standard early super team book with a special charm because of how underutilized these characters are. Read Full Review

All in all, it's a good, fun read from Marvel. The art is in sync with the story, except the cover which features Ka-Zar and Gorilla Man who really don't play a factor. The last page alone is worth the buy, and it leaves you anticipating the next arc in this nicely written story. Read Full Review

Black Panther And The Agents of Wakanda #1 is a great example of what can be done when you break the box down and build something new. Read Full Review

This could wind up falling into the ether of countless team books, but it's off to a promising start and Lan Medina's art is impressive. Read Full Review

Jim Zub and the art team start Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda with a strong first issue that establishes the team and offers a hint of what's to come. Read Full Review

Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda #1 has a story that isn't entirely new, and good art, but has a strong presence with its mix of mainstream and out of the way characters. Read Full Review

A good fight comic that offers something a little different for the hardcore Marvel fan. Read Full Review

Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda #1 is an okay start to a new series. I like the idea of the group and it certainly has some very interesting characters. I will be interested to see what Zub does with them in the future once he gets his footing with all of them. The art, while not bad, also doesn't really stand out either. That is probably the biggest thing that might hinder this series, especially being the first issue. Nothing really stands out about it. Read Full Review

What do we do without SHIELD? Well T'Challa has the answer and it's the Agents of Wakanda. They work on the weird, the wild, and the covert that regular superheroes don't handle. This new on-going series finds a rag-tag group figuring out how to be a team. But if anyone can lead them, it's Okoye. There's some trouble afoot in Oklahoma and then the real action commences. Take a look at this brash group of secret agents under the Wakandan King. On sale now! Read Full Review

The first issue of Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda doesn't skimp on action, but it takes its time to thoroughly establish its premise. It's a good move for a #1, but it doesn't leave much room to make the tone of the title clear. Strong art and a promising (but overlarge) cast are enough to string us along to #2, where we'll hopefully get a better grasp of what this series is all about. Read Full Review

"Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda #1 is a bit of a question mark with its odd pairing of characters." Read Full Review

While this book's action-first approach gets the reader's attention, it also means losing an explanation to the team's makeup, leading to the problematic elements going unaddressed, making Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda #1's opening mission a bit dicier than you might expect. Read Full Review

More by-the-numbers than explosive,Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda isn't exactly a complete dud but fails to make the critical impact necessary to draw readers in for future issues. It has a great set-up but ultimately is searching for a hook strong enough to lure readers back for more. Read Full Review

I still have hopes things can turn around the next issue, but this debut was an uninspired, poorly written bore. It looked great, but Lan Medinas art cant do all the heavy lifting by itself. Read Full Review

Artist Lan Medina's art is indicative of the book as it gets the job done even if not in the most spectacular way. There were a few inconsistencies during conversations as characters would shift their location from panel to panel. One major highlight was a splash page of Okoye doing a roll call of where all the assorted characters were at that given moment. In a way that page represents the type of promise this series and concept holds. Hopefully, future issues will lean into that strangeness rather than straight forward team book with different clothing. Read Full Review

Talk about a guilty pleasure, it was absolutely ridiculous and I enjoyed every page of it. Face paced and great cliffhanger.

It’s a genuine shame most of the Agents of Wakanda don’t appear in this issue, because they really are in interesting group of guys. Anyways, Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda 1 goes heavy with the action and gives us a fast start from the get go. The art is great and this series has a ton of potential. Great to see Zub getting another chance after Champions got cancelled

Prelude:
Well, it's time for the Agents of Wakanda. Let's see how this goes.

The Good:
Characters feel right.

It's also an interesting team we've got here. Very animal focused.

Cliffhanger is interesting.

The Bad:
But the cliffhanger can lead to some poor judgement in writing due to power levels.

The issue didn't grab me completely.

Conclusion:
While it definitely has ways to go, it's a passable first issue for Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda

This was pretty good. I wasn't amazed by it or anything. But it has potential to be something really fun.

There are some appealing ideas in here, but not so appealing that they overcome the "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks" presentation.

I'm a fan of MST3K, and what this comic reminds me of is the "Concepts" song from the latest Netflix season.

This was okay, but nothing special. That reaction to the Sentry at the end bumped up my score a bit.
