Black Panther & the Crew: We Are the Streets
by Ta-Nehisi Coates
This was a fun little story though I felt it must have been canceled out of nowhere with that ending they set up.
So this story is basically revolving around a friend getting killed and bringing together old friends or associates. With that Misty Knight, Storm, Black Panther, and Luke cage all come together. Each issue gives a little more insight to the man who's bringing them all together but also to tie them into one big reveal at the end. It's a murder mystery mixed with some strong political messages.
Good: Enjoyed the teaming up aspect here. It's always nice to see heroes working together and especially some lesser known ones like Misty Knight. I also thought some of the fights were really fun, and each character got to shine for a bit.
Bad: The big reveal felt okay at best though and the ending felt like set up for a team we will never get. I also thought the art sometimes felt rushed.
Overall this was pretty fun. I think a lot more fun than Black panther main story. Ta-Nehisi Coates can have a lot of fun dialogue when he wants to, and this proves he can do better than what he offered in the main BP Line (Though I only read volume 1, maybe it gets better?) Either way this is a 3 out of 5.
