Epic Ink was kind enough to send me a copy of their new book The Wakanda Files: A Technological Exploration of the Avengers and Beyondby Troy Benjamin, and it is a Marvel Cinematic Universe fan dream.<\/p>\n<p>The Wakanda Filesis framed as a compilation of Shuri&#8217;s research of the advanced technology of the MCU. Shuri is T&#8217;Challa \/ Black Panther&#8217;s intelligent, savvy, younger sister, so it makes since that The Wakanda Filesreflect her accumulated knowledge of human enhancement, weapons, artificial intelligence, armor, and more from the MCU. As anything worthy of the Shuri name, The Wakanda Filesis full color, hardcover, with a frosted plastic slipcase. It also comes with a UV light that when shined on pages reveals extra information printed in UV ink.<\/p>\n<p>I wish I could hand the book to you through the screen, so you feel the quality.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_16585\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16585\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/themagicalbuffet.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/wakanda-cover-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16585\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16585\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sexy hardcover.The center &#8220;bead&#8221; is the UV light.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16592\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16592\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/themagicalbuffet.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/wakanda-uv-light-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16592\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16592\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hard to photograph, but the UV light works!<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16594\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16594\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/themagicalbuffet.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/wakanda-page-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16594\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16594\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">You know Shuri was all up in Pim&#8217;s business.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16595\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16595\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/themagicalbuffet.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/wakanda-page-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16595\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16595\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Loads of schematics throughout!<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16598\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16598\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/themagicalbuffet.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/wakanda-page-3-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16598\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16598\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Loads to geek out on!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n<p>With so much content, &#8220;The Wakanda Files&#8221; would make a great gift for any fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe!<\/p>\n<p>You can learn more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quartoknows.com\/books\/9780760365441\/The-Wakanda-Files-A-Technological-Exploration-of-the-Avengers-and-Beyond.html?direct=1\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiebound.org\/book\/9780760365441?aff=MagicalBuffet\">Shop your local indie bookstore<\/a> <---This is an affiliate link to IndieBound, which supports independent bookstores throughout the United States.
