Black Panther Comixology Reading Order

A couple weeks ago, comiXology had a sale on Black Panther comics: they were all reduced to $0.00. (Actually, as I write this on Tuesday the 15th, the sale is still going on.) As far as I know, this was unannounced; no press release or news item from either comiXology or Marvel, just fans noticing. People assume it must have been done in honor of the death of Chadwick Boseman, but no one has actually said!

Anyway, I "bought" them all. I don't know when I will get around to reading them, but I have already worked out my order for reading them when I do. This isn't a chronological reading order (not everything here even belongs in the same chronology; there are some movie tie-in comics, for example), but a publication one. It's not strict publication order, either, though; I don't recommend that you rotate between issues of different comics during the times there were multiple Black Panther titles. Rather, it chunks things down by story arc to make up (I hope, as I am writing this before reading any of them) a smooth reading experience. 

UPDATE ON 15 AUG. 2022: I added some titles that are available for free on Hoopla, but weren't in the sale. They are inserted in {curly brackets}.

UPDATE ON 20 NOV. 2022: I added two more titles from Hoopla following the same system as above (the last volume of Coates's run and the first of Ridley's). 

UPDATE ON 14 FEB. 2023: Added Black Panther Legends and vol. 2 of Ridley's run. 

UPDATE ON 8 AUG. 2023: Added vol. 1 of Mighty Marvel Masterworks, Wakanda, and vol. 3 of Ridley's run. 

UPDATE ON 27 DEC. 2023: Added The Crew. 

UPDATE ON 25 FEB. 2024: Added Marvel Super Hero Adventures and Reign at Dusk.
