MARVEL'S FRESH START REINVIGORATES BLACK PANTHER (BLACK PANTHER #1 REVIEW)

While it may seem silly to relaunch the series with Coates still attached (particularly given how it just reverted to its original numbering last fall), in this case the new #1 is justified. Black Panther #1 makes a clean break from what came before. It features a completely new status quo and mostly different cast of characters. Heck, it doesn't even take place on Earth. Instead, the new series picks up where Marvel Legacy #1 left off with the reveal that Wakanda has become an intergalactic empire in its own right. That twist alone is enough to push the series in a direction unlike anything we've seen before. That alone is a pretty huge selling point.
