DELISTED: Achebe
× rejected by Summoners (Wishlist)
× voted out by Wishlist editors
× poor statistical merit
@elgaberino_MCOC added him a couple years ago looking to list more legit Black Panther rogues
But he's so obscure. There are 100s of more prominent Marvel characters.

Chinua Achebe, seorang novelis, penyair, dan kritikus Nigeria yang disebut sebagai Bapak Sastra Afrika Modern, menjabarkan refleksinya mengenai sejarah hidupnya yang panjang. Di dalamnya ia beririsan dengan perang, penindasan, terutama dalam kerangka koloinalisme Inggris di tanah Afrika.

Being Sunday, he is probably listening to a Tanzanian gospel song. He belongs to the group of youth who sang and danced to Mwana Mpotevu and the entire Agape album by Mount Kilimanjaro…

Nobody can teach me who I am. You can describe parts of me, but who I am - and what I need - is something I have to find out myself.
