Killmonger is Getting His Own Prequel Comic From Bryan Edward Hill
I am Killmonger No one’s perfect But no one’s worthless We ain’t deserving of everything Heaven and Earth is But word is, good – Paramedic!, Kendrick Lamar feat. SOB X RBE When Black Panther hit theaters last February, audiences were captivated by the man, the myth, the legend, Michael B. Jordan Erik Killmonger.
