ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER #5

While T'challa is dealing with Vodukhan and their visions/prohecies, Ra and Khonsu already pushing forward with their plans. So they could just teleport people into Wakanda all along, though it took some effort. That is quite a big threat and they got their hands on this new material.

Speaking of that said material, is it something new? They say it is the opposite of Vibranium, that it enhances life wildly from what we saw. Is it tied to Cotati perhaps? Or Groot's kind? It might be unique, just created for the Ultimate universe to give Ultimate Black Panther a unique power dealing with life enhancement to make him stand apart from 616.

Either way, plot thickens and Moon Knight make their move.

I'm wondering if it's related to terrigenesis in some fashion, seeing as how they mentioned it changes/gives life even to living things.

I think it’s new, and tbh, I hope so. the Ultimate Universe enables that, reinventing characters and mythos with new things while keeping their essence

I'm guessing it could be the Ultimate version of Anti-Metal

This was great and i feel like its up there with the strongest issues so far and now that they are out of the set up phase this book is finally starting to pick up the pace.

The new material they introduce is really interesting especially as its seemingly nothing like vibranium in that it wildly enhances life with this run being so much about the gods maybe it comes from someone like Gaia or another god. It also plays against the traditional thing of tchalla and black panther in that black panther is traditionally connected to the dead but now there is a new element connected to life.

Ra and Khonshu are also becoming alot more dangerous and unleashing a new weapon in the ultimate moon knight who simply looks amazing.

Overall really good writing by Hill and very good art as well by Nieto even if its not as strong as Caselis normal work
