Ok, now I have a reason to watch BET. I like Black Panthor anyway.

 

[irenecooke2004]

Not always. I thought the Spectacular Spider-Man trailer looked poor, but the series is awesome.

 

[My name is what im named]

The first two episodes are available via the ABC's iView service, but it is restricted to Australian users only.

 

[Kunmui]

But, geez, only eight eps in season one? That is cheap. They should make twenty eps per season, at least.

 

[Jestep]

thank's for nothing.

 

[elielvsmusic]

It's a an eight episode mini series. The whole show will only have one eight episode season.

 

[Pageant]

I think they have something to do with Vin Diesel's Hannibal project too

 

[kelcy s]

And what am I supposed to be seeing here? There wasn't any new footage.



Hmm I thought it was pretty good, seeing as it was actually animated well.

I thought it was too bouncy. I got used to it in about three seconds in the show.

Seems like Marvel is really putting out the animated versions of comics characters these days. Though I've never cared for BET if I ever get cable again, I may check this out.

 

[Kunmui]

t'challa's father t'chaka didn't wear a cape right.

I'm still befuddled how Hudlin got so much clout at Marvel and was writing all those big books. His work on Spider-man and THE OTHER was horrible, but that was also JMS's fault.

 

[mandabbyx]

If this show is an adaption of the first arc in the new Black Panther book, I wonder if Clancy Brown or John DiMaggio would reprise the role of the Rhino? With Juggernaut also turning up, I wonder if the latter would reprise that role from the X-Men Legends games?

 

[salimali]

You are correct. BET is looking to become a player in the animation field - who knew?

-Joe!

 

[Itohan A]

Seems like his rogues gallery is somewhat lacking.

Maybe he could borrow some villains or maybe the creators can create some new ones to fill the gap?

 

[Joegha1]

let's hope this lasts at least two seasons, enough to justify a Blade series
I think Carl Lumbley would fit because I've heard him voice an indigenous African as the Stalker in Batman Beyond. Or at least I thought he was a native of Africa. Was the Stalker born in Africa or was he a Westerner?

 

[Laura Jill]

So they're essentially transcribing Hudlin's crappy comic onto TV? I miss Christopher Priest.

 

[musiclove918]

Seriously? Only 8 episodes, that sucks. :sad:

Maybe Marvel is testing the waters by airing it overseas first. If it's as bad as the reviewer above said, then i seriously doubt it will be successfully here in the USA, especially on BET. Infact, even if it was good, it probably wouldn't be successful putting it on that network..but that's another gripe, i'll save for later.

The fact is, BP had so many things working against him; he's a much lesser known character and he's a minority. The very least Marvel could have done was to make his series using the very best animation style that they could, but it looks like they chose the cheapest.
