Black Panther social media reviews praise Ryan Coogler's groundbreaking new Marvel film: 'I never wanted this movie to end'


Marvel’s Black Panther is only a few short weeks from hitting theaters on Feb. 16, and once you’ve gotten the basic details of the story down — long line of kings, Panther God’s Chosen, hidden African nation — you might be interested in diving into the character’s comic books.

I can help.

Black Panther’s first appearance

I don’t always recommend starting with a character’s first appearance, and I don’t necessarily recommend that with Black Panther. While his origin has remained roughly the same as Jack Kirby and Stan Lee penned it in 1966, Black Panther’s stories have certainly reached greater tonal and emotional heights since.

But if you simply must start from the beginning, there’s no harm in getting some historical perspective. T’Challa’s first appearance and telling of his origin story occurred over the course of Fantastic Four #52 and #53, in which he recruits the Fantastic Four to help him with the return of an old foe.

But if you don’t have Marvel Unlimited, don’t shell out money on the issues until you read the next entry!

Panther’s Rage

Panther’s Rage, Don McGregor’s 19-part story, doesn’t just hold a special place in Black Panther’s history. It’s also in the running to be considered the earliest superhero graphic novel: a novel-length tale told over multiple parts, and designed to tell a story of that length from the get-go.

Told as the main feature of 19 issues of Marvel’s Jungle Action anthology series, Panther’s Rage saw McGregor and a slew of the top artists of the time (including penciller Gil Kane and inker Klaus Janson) take the Black Panther on a globe-trotting quest. McGregor focused on the character’s adventures in Wakanda for the first time, placing him among his own people, rather than in America with the Avengers.

Panther’s Rage was the first series to take him seriously and sincerely as a solo character, and to flesh out his mythos with a cast of supporting characters. Some of those characters are still a core part of Black Panther stories today, like Erik Killmonger, who fills the role of central villain in the Black Panther movie (and is played by Michael B. Jordan).

Panther’s Rage is one of the only entries on this list that can’t be found on Marvel Unlimited, so if you want to get your hands on it, you’ll have to find its 2016 collected edition, Black Panther Epic Collection: Panther’s Rage, in hard or digital copy.

The collection also includes Black Panther’s debut Fantastic Four issues. If you want to read both, you can pick them all up in one package.

Black Panther (1998)

Are you ready for something completely different? Priest’s (a writer who has also been credited as Christopher Priest and Jim Owsley) 1998 run on Black Panther is still regarded as one of the character’s most iconic.

The above image is taken from the very first panel in the whole thing, showing the U.S. State Department’s Everett K. Ross (cast very accurately as Martin Freeman in the Marvel movies) in medias res. The “client” he refers to is the King of Wakanda, née the superhero Black Panther, whose visit to America Ross is charged with facilitating. Priest’s run uses Ross as a point of view character, and a necessary one for the major tonal shift he had planned.

Priest’s Black Panther elevated T’Challa’s standing within the fiction of the Marvel universe — underscoring his kingship, displaying political responsibilities and political advantages, and exploring his outsider status among American superheroes. Priest’s run made sure that Black Panther was no longer interchangable with any other “jungle” hero or martial arts master: He was the Black Panther.

You can read the whole thing on Marvel Unlimited, or pick up collections on Comixology. These issues also contain the first appearances of the Dora Milaje, the all-female bodyguards of Wakanda’s royal family.

Black Panther (2005)

2005’s Black Panther series was known for the writing of Hollywood director/producer Reginald Hudlin (House Party, Django Unchained) and the artistic talents of John Romita Jr.

Hudlin crafted a story that focused on T’Challa’s family and his rule in Wakanda. He gave the reader a closer look at the interior life of the Black Panther, humanizing him as a character, while Romita’s stylization showed off a kinetic and cinematic world.

The series also introduced the character of Shuri, T’Challa’s half-sister and heir to his throne.

Black Panther (2016)

Among Marvel’s biggest comics these days is Ta-Nehisi Coates’ Black Panther, which launched in 2016 to significant critical acclaim and the kind of mainstream attention that comics rarely get.

Coates’ (and veteran artist Brian Stelfreeze’s) first arc, “A Nation Under Our Feet,” finds T’Challa at a crossroads: He has lost the confidence of his people, many of whom believe that he abandoned Wakanda for his work with the Avengers. The story guides Wakanda through its second massive transition of T’Challa’s reign, as the nation becomes a democratic constitutional monarchy.

And, you know, there are cool fights and badass warrior women and even Storm of the X-Men.

Rise of the Black Panther (2018)

And finally, if all you want is one quick comic to read to get a handle on the character’s origin story from a modern standpoint, go out and get Rise of the Black Panther #1.

The first issue of Evan Narcisse and Paul Renaud’s six-issue miniseries is all about T’Challa’s earliest adventures as Black Panther. The first issue retells his complete origin story in a concise 20 pages, giving you everything you need to know about Wakanda, its gods and its royal family in one, beautifully drawn installment.

It’s a great starting point — but then, so is any of these picks. Happy reading!


The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s latest entry, “Black Panther,” had its world premiere Monday night in Los Angeles and critics’ early reactions are already rolling in.

With full reviews embargoed until Feb. 6 at 9 a.m., film fans were quick to share their thoughts on the Chadwick Boseman-starrer.

See some of the first reactions below:

Jen Yamato of the Los Angeles Times calls it “incredible, kinetic, purposeful. A superhero movie about why representation & identity matters, and how tragic it is when those things are denied to people. The [first] MCU movie about something real; Michael B. Jordan’s Killmonger had me weeping and he’s the VILLAIN.”

BLACK PANTHER is incredible, kinetic, purposeful. A superhero movie about why representation & identity matters, and how tragic it is when those things are denied to people.

Natasha Alford of The Grio wrote that the “nuances and details in the #BlackPanther storyline are impeccable. I didn’t feel pandered to, stereotyped, or turned off. I felt incredible pride at every turn and these are fictional characters.”

The nuances and details in the #BlackPanther storyline are impeccable. I didn’t feel pandered to, stereotyped or turned off. I felt incredible pride at every turn and these are fictional characters. Like, that’s a real accomplishment. — Natasha Alford 🇵🇷 (@NatashaSAlford) January 30, 2018

If you don’t understand the power of representation, imagine growing up never seeing a superhero who looks like you. When American Girl dolls came out I always picked Addy who had to escape slavery. But now kids have #BlackPanther’s Nakia, Shuri and Okoye. Dope on many levels. — Natasha Alford 🇵🇷 (@NatashaSAlford) January 30, 2018

ReBecca Theodore-Vachon of Entertainment Weekly wrote that “Ryan Coogler has changed [the] game for MCU” and that “Lupita Nyong’o and Danai Gurai bring the heat.”

Y'all. Y'ALL. Y'ALL. #BlackPanther is everything I wanted and so much more. Ryan Coogler has changed game for MCU. My God. pic.twitter.com/12dfz0xKkk — ReBecca Theodore-Vachon (@FilmFatale_NYC) January 30, 2018

Lupita Nyong'o and Danai Gurai bring the heat in #BlackPanther. Their action scenes had the audience cheering and clapping. I loved every second. pic.twitter.com/tmHcWMTnW6 — ReBecca Theodore-Vachon (@FilmFatale_NYC) January 30, 2018

Geeks of Color wrote that “Black Panther” is the “best movie ever” and that it was “by far the best marvel movie to date.”

Black Panther is the best MCU movie ever. I was blown away from start to finish and I’m not even being biased. This was by far the best marvel movie to date. Thank you, Ryan Coogler! #BlackPanther pic.twitter.com/8Qh0hlOYAb — Geeks of Color (@GeeksOfColor) January 30, 2018

Steven Weintraub of Collider wrote that he was “very impressed with the story and filmmaking. [Michael B. Jordan] absolutely kills it as the villain and is the best one since Loki.”

#marvel does it again with 'Black Panther'. Very impressed with the story and filmmaking. @michaelb4jordan absolutely kills it as the villain and is the best one since Loki.

Peter Sciretta of SlashFilm said that “Black Panther” “looks, feels and sounds unlike any Marvel film to date” and called it “Marvels (sic) most political movie.” Sciretta predicted that the film will receive be nominated for costume, art, and production design awards.

Ryan Coogler knocked it out of the park, some great sequences presented in a “single take/shot.” If this movie isn’t nominated for costume, art and production design awards next year, I would be seriously shocked. #blackpanther — Peter Sciretta (@slashfilm) January 30, 2018

Angie J. Han of Mashable said that she “never wanted this movie to end…Solid action, smart story, tons of personality…[Director Ryan] Coogler has done it again.”

#BlackPanther: I never wanted this movie to end, and as soon as it did I wanted to go back. Solid action, smart story, tons of personality.

Kyle Buchanan of New York Magazine/Vulture wrote that “the MVP of ‘Black Panther’ is Letitia Wright’s hilarious, ebullient Shuri.”

The MVP of #BlackPanther is Letitia Wright's hilarious, ebullient Shuri. I want a Shuri supercut, I want a Shuri spinoff, I want a capsule collection of Shuri sportswear at Opening Ceremony, and I want these things now! — Kyle Buchanan (@kylebuchanan) January 30, 2018

A gay man's guide to BLACK PANTHER: This movie has more shirtless wrestling than RIVERDALE and more tear-stained cheeks than a Julianne Moore clip reel — Kyle Buchanan (@kylebuchanan) January 30, 2018

Erik Davis of Fandango said that “Black Panther” is the “James Bond of the MCU…It’s bold, beautiful & intense, but there’s a depth & spiritualness that is unlike anything Marvel has ever done…The best part of ‘Black Panther’ is how it unravels this deeply emotional & complex story about family ties and protecting your tribe.”

#BlackPanther is exceptional – the James Bond of the MCU. You've seen nothing like this in a superhero movie – it's bold, beautiful & intense, but there's a depth & spiritualness that is unlike anything Marvel has ever done.

The best part of #BlackPanther is how it unravels this deeply emotional & complex story about family ties & protecting your tribe. While lots will tout Michael B.

Lastly, #BlackPanther is an audience movie. See it with a crowd cause they will be loud. It is a very proud movie & a female first movie, and I hope it crushes at the box office, paving the way for a future full of much greater representation pic.twitter.com/OBAmAt8eZL — ErikDavis (@ErikDavis) January 30, 2018

Brian Truitt of USA Today wrote that “Black Panther” is “simply awesome” and has a “deep bench of memorable characters.”

#BlackPanther is simply awesome. Extremely bold and as touching as it is thrilling, it boasts GOT-style intrigue, crazy innovative action and a deep bench of memorable characters.

Marc Bernardin said that at “first blush: majestic.”

So…#BlackPanther. So much to digest. But first blush: Majestic. — Marc Bernardin (@marcbernardin) January 30, 2018

James Gunn commended Ryan Coogler, calling the film “extraordinary work.”

Extraordinary work by Ryan Coogler and company! #BlackPanther #WakandaForever! — James Gunn (@JamesGunn) January 30, 2018

Tre’vell Anderson of the L.A. Times wrote that “Black Panther” is a “love letter about blackness” and that “this world’s livelihood is in our blood.”

#BlackPanther is a love letter about blackness, to a world that often ghettoizes it without realizing that it is on black backs that this planet revolves. This world’s livelihood is in our blood. pic.twitter.com/FscW1hWbI6 — Tre'vell Anderson (@TrevellAnderson) January 30, 2018

The Wrap’s Umberto Gonzalez wrote that “the argument can be made for #BlackPanther being the best Marvel film ever” and that it’s “a film that elevates the superhero genre to new heights.”

I think the argument can be made for #BlackPanther being the best Marvel film ever! Just got out of premiere & overwhelmed at the imagery, the majesty, & a film that elevates the superhero genre to new heights. pic.twitter.com/LSkWEconB4 — Umberto Gonzalez (@elmayimbe) January 30, 2018

Cheo Hodari Coker, the creator and showrunner of Marvel’s “Luke Cage” had nothing praise for the “Cooglerization” of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Black Panther is essential. Incredible. Revolutionary. Woke. Fun. I can’t stop thinking about it. The Cooglerization of the Marvel Universe is exhilarating. — Cheo Hodari Coker (@cheo_coker) January 30, 2018

And “Thor: Ragnarok” and “Creed” actress Tessa Thompson had a short (but sweet) reaction…


The Black Panther hype train is officially in motion following the Marvel film's Los Angeles premiere on Monday night (29 January).

Ryan Coogler (Creed) debuted his film to the world at a star-studded event which saw him joined by his cast including warrior king T'Challa himself, Chadwick Boseman, as well as Lupita Nyong'o, Angela Bassett and Best Actor nominee Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out).

Initial reactions have rather unanimously pitched Black Panther as a runaway success with those fortunate to have attended the premiere praising the film as one of Marvel's greatest films to date.

“Yes this will be the Blackest movie of all time,” one viewer raved in reference to the film's cast - also including Michael B. Jordan, Danai Gurira and Letitia Wright - which is the first black ensemble to lead a film of this size. Another praised the film for its “gorgeous and beautiful” focus on black women.

Much praise went to Coogler's depiction of fictional country Wakanda while Jordan's villain Erik Kilmonger has been branded the best since Loki.

The hype around Black Panther was certainly palpable.

It already has the biggest pre-sale numbers for a Marvel movie, and even Lupita Nyong'o — who plays Nakia in the film — struggled to get tickets for the opening night.

Following the global premiere, press were able to share their initial thoughts on the movie on social media from 1 a.m. ET Tuesday. And fortunately, it looks like we can all truly believe in the excitement.

As Mashable's movie reporter Angie Han wrote on Twitter:

Of course, Black Panther is a Marvel film unlike any other, or heck, any film out there. It's the first superhero movie with a black lead: Chadwick Boseman. Kendrick Lamar and SZA are on the soundtrack. Ryan Coogler is the first black director of a Marvel movie.

All of this is promising, and the result is thrilling.

It's a film that will inspire

#BlackPanther is also the latest and certainly biggest film to show Oakland love. Ryan Coogler really did that for the Bay. Imagine all the kids who will see themselves onscreen so deliberately - for a movie to tell you that you are seen like this one does is just beyond words — jen yamato (@jenyamato) January 30, 2018

WOW. Black Panther will change the landscape of superhero movies forever. Expect and demand more from Hollywood. The stories its denied us for so long don’t just *deserve* to be told — they will save blockbusters from total irrelevance and creative bankruptcy. — Jess Joho (@liongirl528) January 30, 2018

BLACK PANTHER is incredible, kinetic, purposeful. A superhero movie about why representation & identity matters, and how tragic it is when those things are denied to people.

BLACK PANTHER is the most spiritual Marvel movie yet! Family and heritage is a big part of the story — there are moments in this movie that get real deep.
