Shuri Should Become Black Panther In Avengers 4


 
The fictional African nation of Wakanda is possibly facing its greatest crisis since it was first established 10,000 years ago. The disappearance of T’Challa has left Wakanda bereft of both King and Black Panther. It’s important to understand that the Black Panther is the crux of Wakandan culture, which is dedicated to the worship of the Panther God. The Black Panther is Wakanda’s champion, its defender, the symbol around which the entire nation rallies. And now the Black Panther has crumbled to dust before the eyes of Okoye, leader of the Dora Milaje




This raises two questions. Firstly, is it possible for a Black Panther to not have powers? And secondly, could Shuri be the right person for the role? Both questions are answered by Reginald Hudlin’s 2009 Black Panther series. This saw T’Challa critically wounded after a clash with Doctor Doom. With the Black Panther left in a coma, it fell to his sister Shuri to take up the mantle of Black Panther. Initially rejected by the Panther God due to her overconfidence, Shuri still chose to fight in defense of her people, thus proving herself worthy of the Panther God’s blessing. When T’Challa finally recovered, Wakanda was left with not one but two Black Panthers, for the first time in the country’s history.

Oh, they'll all come back to life somehow. I suspect the whole thing was a ruse by Dr Strange to hoodwink Thanos into thinking he had achieved full power. I bet it goes hand-in-hand with Loki's double-cross of Thanos. Loki and Dr Strange are both powerful magicians, after all, and probably cooked this whole thing up together.

They are all in the soul stone so what was done can always be undone but there has to be a sacrifice for that and I think Tony will weirld the Guantlet and Cap will be the sacrifice.

Tony, you bastard! That's what you meant by predicting a Shakespearean twist in Part 2, isn't it.

I think with Chris announcing he is done with Cap he deserves to go out in the hugest way at the end of this phase. In the comics Bucky became the next cap as did the Falcon for a time. But you need a real emotional punch and Tony can't make the sacrifice. He has to pull the trigger but he will do so with Cap's encouragement which makes it more painful.

But what the hell do we all know. A few days ago I had a brilliant idea about future Thanos coming back in time to fight present Thanos when he can no longer deal with what he did in his youth.

I agree -- if Steve Rogers must die to bring everyone back, he will go with a willing heart. That's just the kind of self-sacrificing, saviour-complex kinda guy he is. And you know, he'd do it just for Bucky alone, let alone all the rest of them.

Exactly and it's why Strange made sure to save Tony. In the ONE reality where they won the war that is what happened. Tony utalized the Guantlet to save everyone. He was the first movie and it's a nice going away present for Downey too who really turned his life around to play a role only he could have played and he played it with joy.
