Black Panther #1

Black Panther, Vol. 4

Ryan LaFerney

I really enjoyed how this dived into the mythology within the country of Wakanda and discussed its pantheon of gods and goddesses.

Black Panther, Vol. 5

The constant action makes up for previous, stodgier volumes, Klaw is a fairly sympathetic villain and who doesn't like seeing Storm and T'Challa together? Coates run partly influenced the new movie, so pick this up.

Collects Black Panther (2018) #19-25. The end of an era for the Black Panther! Ta-Nehisi Coates’ landmark run reaches a tipping point as the ruthless N’Jadaka comes for Earth! To protect our planet from N’Jadaka’s violent invasion, the nation of Wakanda must go to war against its own future — and its first, best and only hope lies in the Panther! But where is he? Even the gods are beginning to despair — but Bast will not abandon her avatar, even if she has to recruit an outsider to save him! Coates brings T’Challa full circle, back to the home he left behind and the crown he has never fully accepted. This is the story of a king who sought to be a hero, a hero reduced to a slave and a slave who advanced into legend!

Black Panther Book 9

What. A. Series! I’m glad to have experience the memory plane of Wakanda through the eyes of Ta-Nehisi Coates and Daniel Acuña!

Black Panther, Vol. 3

Nat Welch

This was interesting a philosophical level, but these three books continue to be so jumpy that they are hard to truly understand most of the side plots. Only in this third book did I finally understand what was going on and why I should care.

Black Panther, Vol. 2

Collects Black Panther (2016) #166-172. Klaw stands supreme! The Black Panthers greatest foe has returned, ready for war! Can TChalla finally defeat Ulysses Klaw, the man who killed his father, before his country rips itself apart? To make matters worse, Wakandas gods disappear  and the Originators return! The former gods are back, but what are their intentions for a land that has forgotten them? And all that is only the beginning as a cadre of villains returns, monsters pour through strange gateways and Wakanda is brought to its knees! TChalla must defend his country from within  but with his hands full, who will come to Ayo and Anekas aid? Who will join the Panthers ill-fated crusade? And who, or what, is Ras the Exhorter? The answers will surprise you!
