Awesome story - but no surprise there since it's Nnedi Okorafor and she is AWESOME!
These were fun comics, but the art was spotty, especially with facial expressions. The art was a little too cartoony and didn't fit with a lot of the characters. Nakia/Malice's motivations were a little lame, but still a enjoyable mini series. Loved Storm with the large braids, that was definitely a good choice.
I should have realised that having the Dora Milaje work with Spiderman was an obvious choice - “you are the one Anansi blessed.” Anyway, Nnedi Okorafor, reaslised it, which is how we got the three-volume run of Wakanda Forever, featuring Good ole Spidey and the X-Men with our glorious heroes, the Dora Milaje of the secret country of Wakanda.
Nakia, a Dora Milaje who has lost her loyalty, is living in the US as the villain Malice, but now she has stumbled onto something important - a talking drum stolen from Wakanda - and she is capable of dong real harm with it, so the other Dora Milaje have sent a team out to retrieve them both - from Spidey’s home territiory. No way he’s not getting involved. To say nothing of Ororme, Storm Goddess, and a few more of the Avengers.
It’s an exciting, self-contained story that makes good use of the Dora Milaje mystery, and the powers of Spidey, Ororme, Captain America, Rogue and a few other familiar faces, including the Black Panther himself.

I'll admit I wanted to check this out just because of Spidey on the cover. But this was a huge disappointment. Black Panther's all-girl guard fighting some crazy lady with the talking drum...yeah you saw that right...the wait can't speak until you have the talking drum...lol. No amount of guest appearances made this enjoyable.
I'm on a Nnedi kick so I figured I'd read her comics too. I like how this book is less about Black Panther, although he appears, and more about those around him. Strong women being strong. And it hits a lot of the related comics. The first has Spiderman, as shown, but the avengers, X-Men, and others all also appear. Pretty fun.
I wasn't feeling the whole Malice and Storm fight over T'challa storyline, and the side story lines weren't particularly interesting. We didn't get to see much of Ayo and Aneka or the Dora Milajae sightseeing. There were nice moments like Storm shopping for plantains or tbe grace given to Malice, but I didn't enjoy this comic as much as I'd hoped. Of the bonus comics, I thought Black to the Future pt 2 was the best.
Foi meu primeiro contato com Nnedi Okorafor e devo dizer que fiquei desapontado.
É bem provável que o motivo seja que eu não sou o público dessa história. Achei muito infantil, mesmo para um gibi de super-herói. "Então por que você tá lendo, ô adultão sofisticado?" seria a resposta adequada a essa crítica.
