@Rebelofnj,
There is a separate thread about Boseman.
I agree, his untimely death was a shock and was front page news over here as well.
What everyone was pointing out was that this was the first superhero black kids could relate to. One father said he didn’t want to tell his little boy that his hero had died.
I thought it was a very good film, I saw it at the cinema when it first came out.
