People want to act like they have always been riding with T'challa instead of just being honest about it. Like im not gonna lie, I didn't know anything about BP until Maybe about March or so of 2015.. Im not going to lie and say i was down since i was a kid, i didn't know about him, never heard of him, until i was browsing online looking u black superheroes and his name kept coming up on lists. he stood out to me, even though i initially just simply thought his outfit was cool, But thne i started reading the wikipedia info on him and started getting intrigued, then i stumbled upon the amazing HEF and spent the next couple months finding and reading everything i could about BP and watching this forum because i wanted to make sure that when i started posting here, i was atleast moderately knowledgeable enough to have conversations and not spout off ignorance.
People just need to be real, If they were they would see that they only thing so far that Coates could take "Credit" for is Ayo's Name in the movie. Kimoyo beads, force push looking tech, the Bird like design of the quinjet, and the morphing of the habit (Shared credit since Priest had this in his run) and likely some other aesthetics go to Stelfreeze. If people read BP they would see that the main dish is Priest, with a side of Hudlin, covered in Kirby, with Stelfreeze sprinkles as the best way to describe it
