Rated T
Back in Wakanda, dissension continues to grow and the seeds are sown for future conflict. With the arrival of Erik Killmonger, he will most definitely play a role in testing T'Challa's rule. Enjoyable doesn't even begin to describe Rise of the Black Panther. Every one of Marvel's iconic heroes should have a book like this for new and old fans alike. It will truly be sad to see this end.

I know I have said it before but the worst part of this series is that it is going to end. This is a brief and comprehensive origin of T'Challa as King of Wakanda. He handles these other Marvel heroes and villains with style and genius. Keep it coming. Read Full Review
Slower than the previous issues, the diplomatic chess between Doom and T'Challa still makes for an entertaining read. Read Full Review
The focus of each new issue in this series has taken on the feeling of a cover band playing the greatest hits. Read Full Review
Not as exciting but still very interesting.
This continues to be a really solid series. It continues to weave together the Lee/Kirby, McGregor, Priest, Hudlin, and Coates contributions to the Black Panther mythos in really satisfying way.
T'Challa flips the script on Doom and visits him in Latveria. The resulting story expands on the Panther's off-page encounter with the Fantastic Four and further stirs the pot of internal turmoil lurking in Wakanda. Another heaping helping of cool ideas, but the tension between words and art breaks down with the shift to a new artist. While the visuals in this issue are perfectly serviceable, they surrender all storytelling duties to the script. Verbosity holds this installment back.
Great issue. The story is going to interesting directions. Good art as well
Always love to see Black Panther vs Doom. Marvel's coolest monarchs!
