A review by destdest
Marvel Studios' Black Panther: Wakanda Forever by Jess Harrold

hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

I love concept art books. You can’t imagine the level of detail and thought each movie element is given.

As someone who may one day create a fantasy world of my own, this is an amazing example of what to think about. The history of the place, modes of transportation, differences between what the youth and elders wear, how the environment impacts things, just everything.

They mentioned a 440-page bible for Talokan alone. Many of those things weren’t even used, but it all went to fleshing out the world.

Also, I devoured seeing the costume designs they considered for each character. The fact that
Shuri’s
Black Panther suit is an intentional mix of T’Challa’s and Killmonger? AHHHHHHH

Thank you to my local library for buying this book. I enjoyed reading this.
