[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;52336200]these visuals are very strange. it looks like gotg's style, ported over to earth with some african influences. by all means, being unique is a great thing, and i'm glad they're taking a weird route instead of making wakanda into a boring ass, tech-y city with a grey filter over it. but still, i hope it looks more cohesive in the movie than it does here[/QUOTE]
I'm actually really into the whole technoafrica aesthetic they've got going on
Oh man I'm so excited for this movie
Black Panther is my second favorite superhero and him finally getting his own film is so awesome!!

Is he supposed to have super strength too? I feel like he should at least get knocked out or something when being shot in the head tons of times at almost point blank. Similar to Wolverine getting shot in his vibranium skull with regular bullets..

yes. he has all the generic superpowers because of a mystical connection to a panther god.

Wolverine is adamentium. Vibranium dissapates​ vibrations

given it's an advanced technological society with flying spaceships I'm wondering why they wouldn't have been able to handle a few europeans. i mean even Ethiopia managed to maintain her independence until mussolini invaded (and he nearly lost anyways)

I think he also takes an special Herb to give him his powers too.

Never has an avatar been more appropriate.

In the time it took to post this you could have done some reading and then posted something very different from this.

[QUOTE=Zeos;52335697]Legit question, is Black Panther invincible? His suit is made out of the stuff that shrugs off weapons made by [I]gods[/I][/QUOTE]
#2 best metal in the universe, avatar of the panther god, also super plants and 22nd century tech in the suit, so virtually invincible sans other heroes.
All this black panther story is showing me that Isolationism and nondiversity works.

Im not as well versed in Black Panther as i am a number of other characters but last i remember they're generally treated like selfish pricks for being as isolationist as they are at the most extreme. Like they have a cure for cancer but dont share it because "eh".

And still they have the highest wealth and technology of any country in the world. And I wouldn't call them selfish, they are the major contributors to Xaviers school for gifted children. It is more like looking at all the major superpowers of the world and declaring that they are not ready for the technology.

Having overwhelming technological superiority doesn't make a fucking difference if the other side has more manpower.
Wakanda is a ridiculously small country. Pretty much any European power could overwhelm it, and they definitely would because of all of that sweet sweet vibranium.
