    WTF?

     Summary

    Fallout from issue #6 Mbutu has been overthrown and with him gone his country has spiraled into chaos. A former Genoshan scientist with the power to mimic abilities. Panther gets interrupted by storms X-men team he warns them to stay back but Havok and other are not sure who to trust since panther has overthrown the leader of a neighboring country. They eventually interrupt and get mimicked and the villain flees.

    Black Panther and storm reminisce about the past and both wolvie and panther smell each others desire for storm. They split up and Havok’s team get taken down while the super apes defeat the panther. Storm saves the people of Niganda.

    The Good
    Crossover of the X-men and Black panther. Always fun to see different genres of heroing crossover.

    The Bad
    Crossover made Tchalla a quest in his own book. It seemed forced and I cant help but think there should have been a whole issue dedicated to the buildup to this conflict in Niganda. When since does Panther have the same level of senses as Wolvie? Panther has enhanced senses YES but not to the degree of Wolvie. After a stellar first 6 issues, this series starts to falter. Villain was cliché, art was banged up and inconsistent.

    The Ugly
    2/5 a very average read with sub par art
