Black Panther: Long Live the King #5 asks readers to imagine a world in which the average citizen has a relationship with their leader, to the point that they need no security when travelling in their borders.

Weird.
T'Challa wraps up the Mute Zone story with surprising but welcome quickness. Since the party responsible for the haunting of Wakanda was "sentient vibranium" created by a magical scientist, it feels like the sooner we can put this all behind us, the better. The script is neither notably special nor distractingly weak. The art is again an unfortunate blend of confident polish and unappealing aesthetics. Although I'm sad that this story didn't reach out and grab me, I do appreciate keeping the Black Panther's world wide enough to try experiments like this.
