Must have saw the favorable reaction to Shuri...

Blavity influence will be all over this. Wench with a white saviour from Europe, gay/asexual black male character side character, etc. Their fantasy dreamland.

I’ve noticed since Black Panther became very popular they’ve been trying to focus more on the female characters. Can’t have a strong straight black male character walking around now can we.
