“Have you seen Black Panther???:O”

Right now Amazon has the Kindle version of Ta-Nehisi Coates’s first volume of Black Panther for free. Hopefully its free on the European Amazon websites as well, because they pulled a lot of stuff (especially about the Dora Milaje: https://www.amazon.com/Black-Panther-Nation-Under-2016-ebook/dp/B01JT4A2DW

It’s not free but there is sale on comixology. Still, I’m sure people can find this link useful. Thank you for pointing me in good reading direction! marvel comics can be so overwhelming when you have no idea where to start 😀

I’d be super grateful for those links to making of too! I already spent the self appointed treat yourself b-day money so it will be a while before I can buy that artbook with clear conscience 😀

Here’s some of the best/most interesting of articles I’ve read so far (but I can’t wait to get my hands on the art book to read more)
