If you see it that way then yes. But I'll not sit here and explain to you the reasons why I like Black Panther.

No, just a realist.

Originally posted by Disappearthe black panther as written by priest was a distrusting, dismissive and, at times, arrogant jerk. but his character had layers. his plots had intrigue and were written in such a way that the action played perfectly off the dialogue and ross' narrative. sure, some of the stories were weird. black panther's whole crew in the wild west fighting alongside some version of thor? but they felt right, t'challa was unbearably badass in the most underspoken way, and the stories were as readable as can be.
as written by hudlin, he's been completely zapped of his personality. he feels dull, his plots really amount to him "winning" by default half the time, and none of the interesting tidbits hudlin tries to throw in come across as interesting. they, like this "cure for cancer" crap, come off as overly-boastful, out of character and generally lame.
THAT'S what's so bad about hudlin. really.
I have always said, throughout the entirety of this thread that Priest work was better then Hudlins. In fact, I think its a hell of alot better, His run is what got me hooked on T'challa.
To me, Hudlins run isnt all that bad, again, not as good as priest but decent none-the-less.
What really is baffling is if Hudlins run is so horrible as people say, then why is the book averaging around 30k-50k comics sold a months, A long ways better then the 15k during Priest run. Strange.
Here is a word of Advice for everybody and I'll say it again......
If you don't like his run, there is a very simple solution...STOP READING IT (I hope you guys are reading it by the way, because if your not and your commenting on something you never read or seen besides a few scans then that is well, pretty sad)
