Ngozi, Marvel's newest superhero was inspired by Nigeria's chibok girls.

Important bit in the article for those interested in reading the comic:
Nice initiative by the writer.
Unrelated, but I love how every article about comic-books either starts with "Boom, Pow, Zap!" or a variation on "Move over, famous superhero!"

Hopefully she won't be killed by the villains of the crossover she was created for.
Venom's species are invading earth on the run from their predators another species of symbiotes called the Poisons.

Or fall into obscurity.
It's a alternate universe where she gets the symbiote and Black Panthers dies by Rhino.
It's cool to see this but this is coming at a time where the diverse books in Marvel's line are getting smoked by stupidity and sales.
I think this is part of Venomverse, so alternate universe version of Venom.

Died they give her the main Venom symbiote (are there multiple of it running around?)? If so, the unfortunately, don't expect her to stay around indefinitely.
Correct.

Yep, and unlike Venom!Punisher, Rocket, Old Man Logan, All-New Wolverine, another Black Panther etc she doesn't look like she'll be part of the main book so this is it for her until someone goes AU surfing since Marvel aren't announcing a Venoms/Web Warriors book.
What do you think you would like to read?
What interests you? We can get you started pretty easily.
Are there any books about heroes that are not zeroes, and tough as nails when all else fails?
Symbiotes always talk to their hosts. I think you are refering to Flash Venom where the symbiote was lobotomized.
Or end up in Avengers Arena Vol. 2.
Is that a T-rex Venom?
She's going to t am up with mania.

Bendis retconned all "evil symbiote" stories from pre-Secret Wars to be lies, tricks etc(there was a whole story with their planet invading Earth so...). His real symbiotes were a peaceful race that kept galactic peace. They only go bad if corrupted by their hosts. Venom was corrupted by Deadpool(who was retconned to have been in the original Secret War and tried on the symbiote before Peter entered the room looking for a new costume), Spider-Man and Eddie.
They usually talk with their hosts unless they're controlled or pretty much fused to them.

I wanted to read the Black Panther comics before the movie comes out, but when I started looking into it there was like 3 separate series. I ended up buying the "Black Panther: A Nation Under Our Feet" compilation books, but when I started reading the first book, it seemed like the story line was taking place well after what's going to happen in the movies, so I stopped, haha. Are there any comics that take place before or during what's supposed to be in the movie?
Other than that, I like space settings like Guardians of the Galaxy and I liked the Avengers movies

Stop making Jim Lee cry.
Black Panther: The Client by Christopher Priest is what you need.
Best space superhero book in years is Omega Men but that's DC.

The Black Panther run by Christopher Priest generally works well as an introduction to the character and is highly regarded. Jumping into comics there will usually be a few things that happened recently that may be referenced but yeah, the Coates run begins after a major Marvel even that Black Panther was heavily involved in, so it begins with a little bit of baggage from previous books.
Wait, deadpool having the symbiote is canon?! I always assumed that was a stupid elseworlds deadpool story like (dead pool kills marvel, or whatever).

They even did a whole mini about Deadpool in the black suit last year.
Oh dang, back to back recommendations for the same series! I'll definitely have to look into this one then. Thanks for the recommendation
Hmm.
Well, I hope it's a good spinoff story then. Kind of disappointed by it's lack of permanence, but then...it doesn't seem like most of the more progressive books have much permanence these days.
