Iron Man uses an artificial intelligence system light years ahead of Alexa or Siri.
Terrific uses dronelike devices he calls T-Spheres that assist him on his adventures with aerial reconnaissance (they can also deploy lasers, holograms and more). While most technology in comic books is of the fantastical kind, there are some examples that either exist in the real world or are extensions of real-world inventions. Other times it can benefit a team of do-gooders, like the rings used by the Legion of Super-Heroes that give its members, whose adventures are set in the future, the ability to fly. Sometimes the tech makes the hero, like the often upgraded suits of armor worn by Iron Man. Technology has always played a major role in superhero comics. Interspersed throughout the narrative are Shuri’s Mission Log notes.This article is part of our new series, Currents, which examines how rapid advances in technology are transforming our lives. Known especially for her intelligence in the Marvel universe, Shuri does not disappoint and will delight readers with her showcasing of her lab and her inventions, including the Panther Mobile, later renamed the Predator. With help from Storm of X-Men, Shuri and K’Marah must figure out a way to save Wakanda from its enemies.
Shuri sets off on a covert mission with her best friend and Dora Milaje–in-training, K’Marah, to find the source of the poison and figure out how to reverse its effects. She’s been told that female warriors don’t challenge the sitting Black Panther but become Dora Milaje, his protectors. While no one doubts that T’Challa will be victorious and the herb won’t be needed to create a new Black Panther should someone defeat him, Shuri, 13, can’t help but worry. Challenge Day is about to arrive in Wakanda and the heart-shaped herb has been poisoned. Gr 5-7–Princess Shuri takes center stage in this action-packed novel from Stone.
