In response to "Black Panther: B+" by just oblique

I wouldn't really consider it an origin story

Maybe an origin story of Wakanda but it felt more like a character development story.

Introduction story. Killmonger's is the only origin story in the movie. -- nm - Roger More Mar 7, 07:50 8
- I dunno, I mean, BP is like the dread pirate roberts so in a way we do get to see the current BP's origin -- nm - just oblique Mar 7, 07:51 7
  - Not really. He was already BP before the start of the movie. -- nm - Ender Mar 7, 07:52 6
    - I mean, the whole movie, in a way, is about (spoilery) - just oblique Mar 7, 08:05
    - Only nominally so. BP was only weeks after the death of T'Chaka. - TWuG Mar 7, 07:57 4
      - He was trained to be the BP since he was a young boy, and when we meet him in Civil War he has been the BP for years. - Roger More Mar 7, 08:05 3
        
        Yeah, it doesn't really line up with comics canon, but I definitely got the impression that he had taken the herb well before his father's death. -- nm - Ender Mar 7, 08:10
        
        He trained from childhood, but (at least in the MCU) Civil War marked the first time he wore the suit. -- nm - TWuG Mar 7, 08:10 1
        
        No, there was a digital MCU comic released late last year that said he became BP about the time Tony Stark revealed he is Iron Man. -- (link) - Roger More Mar 7, 08:23
