Wow, i didn't believe this but it is true

Maybe if Stark had access to Wakandan education and advances he'd be smarter. But he didn't.
Still a touch more practically minded though, even with his flair for the dramatic.

It's funny, because Hudlin's moronic retcon to say that "Wakanda was always way more advanced" (which the movie incorporated) pretty much took away all the accomplishments of T'Challa.
It's not that T'Challa (or Shuri by proxy) is extremely intelligent, he just comes from a society with more cumulative knowledge. Her bragging that she's smarter than Tony Stark because she made better things (while using tech he has no access to) is like some university student bragging that he's smarter than Isaac Newton because he knows "E=MC^2" and Newton didn't.

It's not just a stereotype, it's the truth.

I don't understand how vibranium made wakanda any better than any other african nations. Did it have some magical properties we're not aware of? Say it's better metal than iron or bronze, okay. But back then, when no one knew ho to mend metals into weaponry, what difference did it make for such primitive societies. None of the other african nations developed any kind of metal making to produce weaponries, so wakanda using normal iron swords would have been the same effect.

>Shuri is the smartest Avenger
>She's also the only one that knows not to trust vaccines, COVID is overblown hype, and that trans are not people
Now that's pretty based.

Are we talking comic wakanda or movie, because that makes a huge difference.

On top of everything else, comic Wakanda is seething in magic, and the vibranium fucked up their environment to the point where part of the country is a perpetual frozen tundra, part of it is a jungle, part of it is miraculously good for farming, etc.

>overblown
284K deaths in the us alone even with all the measures taken.

I guess the movie since thats what the threads on.

>all the measures

Vibranium absorbs energy, which makes it stronger, but only up to a point. Once it reaches a certain point it shatters, releasing all the energy it absorbs.
Adamantium won't shatter, but it doesn't absorb kinetic energy well.
Captain America's shield, the unique alloy created with Vibranium and nobody-knows-what-else, doesn't shatter and can absorb energy.

If you had a Vibranium shield and Hulk started punching it, eventually it wouldn’t be able to absorb any more energy and would violently explode.

If you had Captain America’s shield and Hulk started punching it, the shield wouldn’t break, and because it absorbed most of the energy from the punches you might not get hurt too much.

If you had an Adamantium shield and Hulk started punching it, the shield might not break… but it wouldn’t absorb the kinetic energy, so you’d be jellified from the force.

Vibranium isn't as good as Cap's shield, but it's still OP as fuck. It also apparently got into Wakanda's flora and fauna, mutating them in weird ways (so you get things like the heart shaped herb that gives Panther better-than-peak-human abilities), and "somehow" fucked with the environment too, creating the frozen wastes, a jungle with dinosaurs and shit, and farmland that you can't help but grow stuff in.

Vibranium made Wakanda hax back in the Kirby days, although back then the idea was just that they had some weapons nobody else had defenses against, a few superhumans, and terrain that made everyone else stay the fuck away. Pre-Hudlin their tech boom didn't happen until T'Challa showed up with his Reed Richards-level intelligence, and changed Wakanda from "doing a good job of secretly keeping up with the rest of the world" to "the country with the most advanced tech, because the King's a genius and he has access to a super-metal that nobody else has access to."

Hudlin retconned that to "they've always been this good" and never explained how.

That's what i'm saying, there is no way that those primitive societies back then could have used any of vibranium properties to make shields/weapons or anything, because that would require insane tools to be able to shape/process vibranium into anything usuable. A species that hasn't even discovered basic metallurgy would have done dick with this metal. So i'm trying to figure out how the hell them having vibranium caused them to develop any better than anyone else in africa.

tony created a suit more powerful than BB superpowers in a cave in the dessert.

Suri made a bullet proof suit and still needed her magic metal.

You already posted this thread you fucking dickhead

shut up fag

No, not really. A lump of Vibranium is a better axe-head than a lump of any other metal. Slap a few lumps of it on a shield and suddenly you have the best shield in the world.
We can also no-prize it to say that when McGregor wrote that the fucked up environment gave Wakanda better farmland (right there, between the frozen tundra and the dinosaurs), he meant that you could actually do irrigation without malaria. Somehow. Vibranium, fuck it, whatever. They had agriculture better than anywhere else in Africa, which gave them better cities, and more time for people to sit around and think about shit.
There's also the fact that the heart-shaped herb makes you superhuman, better than peak human in every physical category.

So you had a country where there's fucking dinosaurs man, and where they had virtually indestructible shields and spears, and they had magic, and also by the way, they've got a few fucking demon-warriors that can take out a whole squad of dudes single-handed with superhuman abilities.

Again though, pre-Hudlin they had an edge over the others, but their main schtick was that (1) nobody invaded Wakanda because that whole place was thought of as a deathtrap, and (2) the leaders sent out spies to learn of technological progress elsewhere and bring it back home.

that articles old but didnt you mutt monkeys cancel this cunt because shes anti vaccine and transphobic?

mutt twatter and media purely tranny driven. everything is about trannies

it has nothing to do with comics

Isn't vibranium meant to be super strong? How are people able to smith it into weapons if it's stronger and "absorbs energy" more than anything else?

>falling for corporate bait designed to piss people like you off into doing free advertisement for them to help conceal that its still a soulless cashgrab from a megacorp actively supporting inverted-totalitarianism for fun and profit

Going by the old Marvel handbooks, we're told that they have a process.
We are not told what the process is.
But they have one.
At a certain point you have to let the writers have their magic metal.
