I never sat down a read a comic book but I’m beyond thrilled I took the time out to read this one. I loved the characters and I loved the love story in the mist of it all. I will definitely be picking up more comic books in the future.

It's hard to believe what a good job of writing a multi-issue comic book story Roxanne Gay does for her first time. Beautiful black women loving women and facing fears while in nationalistic warrior roles: hell yes, I'm here for this.

This is a great little taster for anyone wanting to get into Black Panther comics as we get to see Wakanda outside of the big events-stories through Aneka and Ayo's eyes. I'd highly recommend reading Ta-Nehisi Coates' run of Black Panther after reading this!

I’m not usually a comic book person but this was really cool! Diving deeper into the world of Wakanda, an extremely lush and fascinating setting in Marvel’s Black Panther, was a joy. The all women warrior group that protects the Wakandan royal family is so cool, and seeing a burgeoning love story between two of them was awesome. Also addressing the political unrest in Wakanda while Black Panther is off with the avengers is an interesting take.

My second exposure to Black Panther and also chosen because of the author. I liked this one better ... it was a little easier to understand and I found the story more compelling. Probably because it is more female centered tbh. I also enjoyed the artwork more.
