"Remember who you are." The Black Panther and Lion King parallel. Wow. #BlackPanther
Credit to @joshkelliott for pointing it out.
Man the parallels are too much looking back at the death of T'Challa's father on Civil War & Mufasa on Lion King. 😭#BlackPanther
One more time to drive the Black Panther and Lion King parallel point home. "Remember who you are." And im done. #BlackPanther
My parallel assumption from the trailer is that T'Challa's seeking council from his ancestors who show up as panthers. Simba w/ ghost Mufasa

OK, we need to talk about why this is nonsense, and why it matters - and it's far more important than 'nerds being wrong on the internet':

#BlackPanther #Comics #ComicsHistory #FakeNews
That image is a tweet that went viral last week, spurred by the movie's success. I first saw it posted by @ fatherdog, but I don't know if that's where it originated and it's since been deleted. However, the issue is that it racked up over 4000 retweets - and is completely false.
Here are the facts:
-Yes, Jack Kirby created Black Panther, in the pages of Fantastic Four#52-54 in 1966
-But. Black Panther's first solo stories were published in Jungle Action, from 1973
-That series was written by Don McGregor, with art by Rich Bucklin & Billy Graham

I did not expect the ending of #BlackPanther to hurt with Coates' almost nihilistic realism that I first felt at beginning of "Between the World and Me", but it did. That, the Tim Hardaway reference and Ryan Coogler's nod to Spike Lee's spinning dolly cam. 👌🏽🏆
I wish you could have been there for the opening in my neighbourhood with my son and I surround by other locals and heard the excitement from local aboriginal kids as the movie started. Their identification meant they shared in the representation and it moved me deeply.
With the release of #BlackPanther film I want to address some important but forgotten realities of the Black Panther Party (in 🇺🇸 & 🇦🇺) and confront some of the lies. The history has much to teach those of us committed to nonviolent organising for justice.

1/25 This is an analogy that has been swirling around in my thoughts for a while. As a World of Warcraft player it occurred to me that the @GOP are like a raid in WoW. It's my first #thread, and yeah, it's long.
2/25 If you've played WoW and understand raids, you can skip to tweet #12. For those who have not played, continue reading to understand my analogy.
3/25 In World of Warcraft, players can get into groups known as a "raid." It is literally what it means, an attack on an enemy by troops. The "troops" being the players. Raids consist of 10, 20, and 40 players, but this isn't really germane to the analogy.

So. I'm is back to discuss what it means to call #BlackPanther "political" as well as discuss the politics that Black superheroes have to contend with across the board.

theroot.com/on-black-panth…
In the midst of this #BlackPanther extravaganza, I see a lot of people describing the film (and character) as "political". While I certainly agree, I wonder if some of y'all understand what you're really saying. And I figure that now is as good a time as any to talk about it.
Now when White folx say something is "political", that's usually code for "y'all talmbout them race tings again" or "whatever is being discussed is making me uncomfortable".

A thread for EVERYONE in fandom: I just showed the #BlackPanther trailer to the women in my neurologist’s office. Most of them are Black.
These women are all media savvy. Some of them are versed in the Marvelverse. They had not heard of Black Panther.
So I showed them the trailer on YouTube. I watched their curious smiles turn into visceral, tangible joy and excitement.
