As far as the comics go, before this book hit shelves Black Panther was thrown around a lot since about 2012. He was still a very interesting character but it seemed as if he was in one devastating event after another. Wakanda suffered. Coates does an amazing job letting those events weigh heavy on T'Challa while focusing the story on the present and future. This creates a solid story without making the reader feel like they have to go back and read all the comics they may have missed. I will say, as a Vol. 1, I felt like it was an incomplete story and you would, at minimum, need to continue to Vol. 2 and most certainly beyond. Coates is playing the long game and I believe it is for a greater purpose.
