Some people just aren't comics fans, but will see the movies. But sometimes the movies will cause a surge in interest in the comics.

I also have a reply to your letter writer.

Dear Me (and not Black Fans Everywhere),

I'm actually guessing you are in a small minority that feel this exact way. Now, you might have a point about the language, even though fans talk that exact way about all characters they like, there can be an implication of ownership and possessiveness. And I get that the movie has a lot of significance for black fans. But I guarantee you that Marvel wants everybody who is willing to buy a ticket to see this movie. And actually, you do too. Because the more popular it is, the more the industry will see movies with black casts as viable and a good investment. Being exclusionary doesn't help anything. If someone is doing something wrong, by all means call them out, but people including white characters (in fic or whatever) that have interacted with T'Challa (who was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby) and/or been to Wakanda is not wrong.
