Christopher Priest is held in high regard for his Black Panther run. I personally loved his Slade run for Rebirth and overall I enjoy a lot of his stuff.

Black Panther starts off solid with a 5 part series with great art and Black Panther himself dealing with his country's issues but also dealing with the devil trying to betray him while the United States is trying to figure this out and send people after him. It's a ton of fun, great art, and really shows Black Panther in a cool way.

Sadly after that the series continue to get worse. Him facing off against Kraven is almost comical, he should wash the floor with him but doesn't. Then he has to deal wit betrayal from his country and his people, which back then might have been new and fresh but these days feels like we've been there done that. Killmonger is a interesting character, sadly one of the only interesting ones to get a storyline and then...well no spoilers, but it's not fun for him.

You have Black Panther's cast that really never grow and most kind of are annoying to be honest. There is a fun thing with Queen, one of Black Panther's crew, who hangs out with HUlk and that's pretty great but the rest of the cast can go off a cliff, they're boring or unfunny and freaking annoying.

Overall, we got some so/so arcs here or there but the deadpool crossover is HORRIBLE and the later stories go into blah. THe art gets worse and worse as it goes on and never reaches the heights of the first arc sadly.

Overall a major disappointment after first arc or two and honestly not worth the time in my opinion. A 1.5 out of 5.
