Black Panther solo book as part of Marvel Now?

[Huthaifa]

I would be against it. They need to build the character back up in a more popular series i.e. Xmen,Avengers, and or Fantastic Four before putting him out in this market. I dont want an 8 issue run , and then goodbye.

That being said, I would still buy it.

Black Panther NOW!!!!

[Genki Sudo]

2 highly hyped relaunches, his own mini event, and Chaining him to the one of if not the most popular marvel female. that's more then 2 and none of them have worked

Only one was hyped, a mini event that crippled him yeah that's helping a character, he married Storm at a time when she was barely in A x-book

If that's how you hype up a character then no wonder no one likes Cable, Deadpool, Hawkeye, Wolverine, Ms./Captain Marvel, Gambit, Human Torch, Beast, Rouge, and the list goes on but nope he's gotten more chances then anyone outside of the big three

[FLEX HECTIC]

If they are to do this then they need to really research why the Black Panther starts out the gate at like 40,000 and then sinks down into the 20,000 or less range later down the line!

The hyped launch of first issues can mislead them into thinking they are experiencing success only to later frustrate true Black Panther fans with more lame out of character actions.

Whether T'challa is restored, the vibranium is restored and then someone has to address his marriage to Storm and not duck the issue with off the panel suggestions.

Premise... Premise... Premise!

The Black Panther is a "Thinking Man's" character that inspires the writer to think outside of the editorial box... Which means will editorial support or block good story telling with no good reasoning at all?

David Liss' run got cancelled despite good writing so will this be another attempt that falters because there is something going on behind the scenes at Marvel hindering progression?

Have the true fans of Black Panther left this franchise and moved on?

Who will be the point man that fronts for this character to ensure that quality control is of utmost importance or will they just throw things into the wind and see what sticks?

They need to Manhattan Project this project or it will be more of the same and then the buzz could be gone forever as trust is lost among the fan base.

Carry on...

In all fairness he wasn't crippled in the mini (if you're talking about Doom War that is). He was crippled in Hudlins relaunch... but by Doom War he had not only recovered, but was actually powered up a bit.

I'm talking about Doom War where he lost all all the things he gained in the first couple of issues of it, I didn't mean crippled in the way he was at the mentioned Hudlin run( my bad for the confusion )

[rsreed13]

I really would like to see a new Black Panther title, especially if Hickman (or Remender for that matter) is writing.

[Venomous Mask]

there are a ton more deserving characters, how many chances has BP gotten" they have literally tried every thing and none of it has worked.

This. Marvel should instead do a cosmic, sci-fi storyline; something outside of the box.

[MykhaelKhan]

I'd be in support of Panther getting a new run.

[tigerkaya]

Depends on the writing.

[rasx]

Crossing my fingers that this will actually happen.

[Zen-aku]

Only one was hyped,

They were both hyped as hell

a mini event that crippled him yeah that's helping a character,

he was pitted against the premier supervillian of the company [who then had to job to him] teamed up with one of the most popular teams, they even brought in deadpool, just because it sucked and didn't sell well dosen't mean they didn't A. take a huge chance on him and B. Give him a huge spot light, that's a hell of allot more then most characters just because the writer and the character botched it doesn't mean they didn't give him a chance

he married Storm at a time when she was barely in A x-book

Debatable. she was still incredibly popular, and this was done just to make him popular

If that's how you hype up a character then no wonder no one likes Cable, Deadpool, Hawkeye, Wolverine, Ms./Captain Marvel, Gambit, Human Torch, Beast, Rouge, and the list goes on but nope he's gotten more chances then anyone outside of the big three

i Don't under stand? wolvierine gets solo's because his book sells, so do deadpools, they are trying with hawkeye and gambit but its been years since they got a chance. Cable is in a coma. Ms.Marvels last book got canceled 3 years ago and she is only now getting a solo and even then they are changing her look and name so that dosn't count. Rouge, Best, and torch don't have their own books and aren't going to in the near future

how do any of them have any thing to do with panther who has had numerous chances over the last couple of years and failed.

[Genki Sudo]

They were both hyped as hell

No

he was pitted against the premier supervillian of the company [who then had to job to him]

Thanks for showing that you didn't read it as Doom did not job to T'Challa, it was the other way around

teamed up with one of the most popular teams, they even brought in deadpool, just because it sucked and didn't sell well dosen't mean they didn't A. take a huge chance on him and B. Give him a huge spot light, that's a hell of allot more then most characters just because the writer and the character botched it doesn't mean they didn't give him a chance

They didn't team up, they were just there to say "hey we're here" hence why Deadpool was there, that's like saying the X-Men teamed up with Thor, Tony and Reed during Second Coming. You're still missing the point that they did NOT take a huge chance on him or give him the spot light as he'd need to mingle with the rest of the Marvel universe to do that and that rarely happens unless it's in someone else's book

Debatable. she was still incredibly popular

But she was not being used which you keep ignoring

and this was done just to make him popular

No it wasn't, that would be Ms. Marvel dating Spidey

i Don't under stand? wolvierine gets solo's because his book sells, so do deadpools,

Yeah Deadpool sells so well he still has three ongoings

they are trying with hawkeye and gambit but its been years since they got a chance.

Who has both gotten multiple chances and more then Black Panther

Cable is in a coma.

Cable still has had two ongoings, a couple minis and has been the star of a couple events, T'Challa hasn't gotten that treatment

Ms.Marvels last book got canceled 3 years ago and she is only now getting a solo and even then they are changing her look and name so that dosn't count.

You conveniently forget she was also on multiple teams which is more then what T'Challa got and pretty much longer as well, what you're not seeing is that she like more who people say don't get enough play but apperently is being held back by T'Challa

Rouge, Best, and torch don't have their own books and aren't going to in the near future

They've all had minis and Legacy pretty much was Rouge's book as have Beast while also being on teams at the same time which again is more then T'Challa has ever gotten

how do any of them have any thing to do with panther who has had numerous chances over the last couple of years and failed.

I'll spell it out for you again, they all have had more chances then T'Challa who apparently has had a bazzillion chances

[USERNAME TAKEN]

This would be the perfect opportunity for Marvel to launch a Black Panther series.

Get the right writer and artist, a solid premise and let it take off.

I'm all for a new Black Panther series.

Said "chance" was a little publicized mini during the time Marvel's major event of the year (Siege) was taking place, written by the relatively new writer of the most recent volume that was having troubles on its own.

As far as the others, Rogue technically has had a book for the last two years with X-Men: Legacy, she was the primary character there with a rotating cast of supporting characters and is said to be a major character in Uncanny Avengers. Beast headlined the S.W.O.R.D book a few years ago, and currently splits time being a major character in Secret Avengers and Wolverine and the X-Men. Johnny Storm just came back to life and the original also had a mini that came out a couple years back that revived him.

Black Panther may not be on Wolverine or Deadpool level, it usually sells decently and is right about the level of his popularity which is just toward the top of the B-List heroes. So there is a market out there that likes good Black Panther stories and usually there is a writer/editor or two that also wants to tell Black Panther stories, those are usually two big factors in books making it out to the stands. Say the character doesn't deserve another shot to succeed because he had previous shots but the industry doesn't care about failed shots if the character is strong enough that fans demand it or creators want to use the property.
