fukk Ryan Coogler

Yep it was created by two white guys jumping on the blaxploitation wave, just like most black heroes like Luke Cage, Jon Stewart, and the like.

What you see popularized about Black Panther today was created by the two FBAs, the world by Priest and the action impact by Reggie Hudlin. They are the ones who truly integrated and set Black Panther apart and Wakanda as apart in the Marvel universe. They made the character popular enough where it would even be sensible to bring them into a movie.

That said I believe Priest was part of Milestone with McDuffie, where they co created Static and other Milestone heroes. That said McDuffie and Priest have very different political and spiritual beliefs, which sort of helped them make comics that weren't diehard liberal, they balanced each other. Unfortunately they contracted DC with right of first refusal for all non-comic offerings and DC made sure to keep them contained.

Again...Priest has made Tchalla lose to a white man. That's a fact. Not another black man. A white outsider. Cmon man...do better

He made him lose to his son

 

[Brolic]

The one that wrote both of these comics are BLACK!!!!

Where’s his family from?

 

[King_Kamala61]

My Goat T’challa is

It's not just me who sees this bullshyt. I'm glad Coates run was when I left. Al Ewing did Tchalla justice and that's a white as snow writer. The black writers are bodying Tchalla and I'm sick of it. Everytime me Joe Quesada ass gets in control of black characters he acts an ass. So fukk him too.

A pure white man can never Tchalla son.

 

[David_TheMan]

A pure white man can never Tchalla son.

In the comic, that is T'Challa's son with Monica Lynne.
So you literally had to make up what you are complaining about.
lol

 

[Neuromancer]

I understand your issue OP. But I'm done being upset. I write my own comics and sell them in store and conventions. I can only control what I do. Marvel can do what it wants they don't give a fukk about us.

If y'all wanna support my comics they're on sale at Forbidden Planet in New York City. We also ship comics to other states. They're also on sale digitally here. Lawful Evil Comics - itch.io

Lol, thats a half black child of T'Challa.
You seem to be angry
I have a feeling Priest did exactly what he did to get folks like you angry.
I love it.

I've been meaning to. But I can support you with dollars while I'm still doing my art too. But trust I follow you on IG and I definitely support your cause. We black artists are important to how we depict blackness as it shows how we see ourselves.

 

[MajesticLion]

Again, we don't own anything and yet we see our depiction of us as negative.

So yes, we don't own it, but when everywhere you turn you see imagery of yourself as less it weighs on your mental. That's the point. But I see what you are saying. I'm not dismissing that.

That's why my art is fully black. No ambiguous shyt to sell to whites, they want my art...they buying BLACKness on full display.

Simplest solution ever.

Stop investing in their depictions of you. That includes emotional capital.

That's easier said than done. Because if I never spend another dollar on these new depictions of Tchalla I cannot dodge it.

This is why I do my own fan art cause I can depict him how I want. So naw breh....

 

[Dwayne_Taylor]

Priest and Hudlin are the reason most of you even care about Black Panther today. It was there run that made him relevant in Marvel and not just another token 70s/80s "black" character.
All the world building of Wakanda that you all love is Priest. The tradition, its power, technology, the customs, inter clan politics, all of it is Christopher Priest.

So to look at this thread and have someone claim Priest destroyed the character, when everything you know and like about the character was CREATED by him is absurd. Priest made the lore and character, and Hudlin go to make action in the world after all of Priest's world building.

Coates and Coogler are nothing by white liberal puppets. IMO. They destroyed what took years for Priest and Hudlin to create.

I respect what Priest did but I have to call this for what it is ; Priest writing shock value to go viral.

 

[NobodyReally]

It's a privilege to care about fiction this much. They trying to paint slavery as a vacation in education text. That's more alarming than whitekanda.

Let it flop in peace. Start raging about this and look like snowflakes crying about a black mermaid etc.

These things aren't either/or. It's both/and. You can attend to truth and fiction, but trust, there's a reason white people are so defensive about fiction and the control over who creates and markets it and how.

Of course there's no dodging it. That doesn't mean you get upset when it happens, either. You use that energy for a better purpose.

It's all ultimately useful in one significant way: to understand the how-and-why mechanics of their attempts to lie to and manipulate everyone else.
