Black Panther: A Nation Under Our Feet, Book 3 by Ta-Nehisi Coates
3.0
Oh, dear. Book 3 brought me back down. I was so psyched for this volume, but it was a slow-motion meander through a surplus of talk and politics. I appreciated the complexity of the politics and enjoyed the philosophy to a point but there was too much of it to be packed into so few pages. Still, I liked the way everything wrapped up.
The back half of the book was all New Avengers stuff with the parallel Earths or Multiverse or whatever -- Secret Wars? -- and it was super obnoxious and if I never have to see any of that storyline again it will be too soon.* I almost wish they had filled the back half with more of those vintage Black Panther comics, if they were that desperate for padding.
*I say that, but I think I've enjoyed part of this line elsewhere? Can't remember the details. It wasn't this garbage, though.
