BET’s Black Panther

Lets shake things up a bit, move into new and unexplored frontiers, and battle beasts the like of which we have never seen! Lets go to American animation!

My benefactors at FanGirlTastic have graciously provided me with some material they would like me to review; among these is a cartoon series that aired on BET in January of last year: Black Panther. For those of you that don’t know, Black Panther is the first black superhero to appear in mainstream American comics, and made his debut in 1966 during the Silver Age of comic books. The BET series was animated in the motion comic style, and Black Panther himself was voiced by none other than Djimon Hounsou, of recent films such as Shakespeare’s The Tempest, and Blood Diamond.

Geeks With Taste on FanGirlTastic!

Because I’m the kind of guy you would expect to have special connections and people to get things done for me, it’s no surprise that word of this small little site would be shared on other small little sites. However, I’ve also managed to make friends with much larger sites, full functioning forums even, like FanGirlTastic!

Formerly Pretty Scary, the forum dedicated to the fangirl’s passion for horror movies that also gave commercial reviews of horror movies, FanGirlTastic has since expanded to a fangirl haven for all genres and media, and is looking to improve on their anime catalog. That’s where I come in.
