Review of 'Black Panther Book 9' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
A big comic book ending with lots of cameos, that suffers from the problems that entails. Coates' tale of empire ends with a reluctant monarch, but oddly doesn't seem to have much to say about it, given how much it wants to say about colonialism and empire. Decent art, some excellent character designs but not to the extent you'd recommend it for such. Overall a decent attempt to grapple with big ideas, but ultimately compromised by the need to conform to genre expectations.
