Black Panther/Awesome

• Ross is alone with Mephisto, Lord of Hell, in Panther's apartment. Panther gets home.

Ross: Should I call the Avengers?
Panther: Why? *Panther proceeds to take down the Devil with one punch*

• • Of course, this being a Panther story, he was able to do that because of careful planning, preparation, and manipulation, which makes it better.
• Ross gets his own CMoA where he basically prevents World War III with quick-thinking and snark.
• Another one for Ross, when he attacks Wolf to save Panther.
• Panther (kind of) vs. Iron Man (also kind of). One of the all-time coolest fight scenes in a comic ever, as two of the absolute smartest guys in Marvel fight as much with their brains as with their bodies.
• Killmonger's entrance, wherein he tackles an elephant, may count. Villains can have CMoAs, right?
• Monica Lynne, after repeated abductions, threats, unwanted adventures, and finally being ejected out of a speeding fighter jet by Panther's jealous bodyguard, is lying in the jungle when a leopard finds her. She's had enough, so she just stares it down, then goes to sleep. Doubles as a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming when the leopard lies down and goes to sleep next to her.
• Iron Fist gets one when he leaps out of an airship and delivers a falling/flying Iron Fist to a giant evil dragon that was ravaging Wakanda. Also, if you just read that sentence and don't immediately want to read (or re-read) these comics, I don't know what's wrong with you.
• Panther, beset on all sides by massively dangerous enemies and impending war/disaster, seems to finally pick up the Idiot Ball when he reluctantly accepts the White Wolf's allegiance... about twenty seconds before leading Wolf and all his henchmen into a trap. The dialogue in the scene just makes it better, but I don't have the issue handy.
• Queen Divine Justice's CMoA comes when she talks down the Incredible Hulk. This is followed by many CMoFs as she leads the big green lug around New York.
• The entire early 2000s run was one for writer Christopher Priest. An absolutely fantastic and unique story, an unbroken run (no other writers doing fill-in issues), and it remains to this day the longest Marvel or DC solo run starring a minority hero. That he managed to do all that with repeated artist changes, Executive Meddling (although not nearly as bad as in his other work, he was forced to do a dialogue-free issue in the middle of an exceedingly complicated story, and to shoehorn an Earth-wide alien invasion into an unrelated story) just makes it more impressive.
