Those are three characters I'm not too up on but would like to be. I'm looking for recommendations on which is the best series (single or multiple) to start and read for each of them.

Thanks...

    BP got a new ongoing that's debuting soon and it's written by a black writer. It'll be the only Marvel book that I read.

    I started new avengers back in 2013 I think. Team was lead by panther. Followed it up until he was about to murk namor. ? I never got to see what happened. Can anyone tell me if namor got the business? Or he still alive somehow? How'd that go down?

    Panther was gonna ? namor because of namorm attacking wakanda when he had a fraction of the Phoenix power during avengers vs xmen.

    Read Christopher Priest's run on Black Panther from the 90s. ? is goat!! They are currently releasing this run in trade paperback and are on volume 2. Pretty though to follow at first because it's a lot of flash towards and flashbacks, kinda like pulp fiction. It's great stuff!

    Right before Secret Wars began, during one of the final incursions, BP stabbed Namor and Black Bolt blasted him. BP watched as Namor fell to a planet that was about to be destroyed. He didn't die in this encounter though, he was saved by the Cabal. BP and Namor actually became allies during Secret War and were instrumental in the final battle..Personally, I was hoping for the two of them to have an ongoing but hey, Marvel. After Secret Wars, Hyperion, along with the Squadron Supreme, murdered him.

    Priest's run is GOAT. I agree
    Moon Knight - just go with his first volume along with West Coast Avengers comics. MK is a very good character. Back in the day he had enchanted weaponry and gained abilities during a full moon, or was it at just at night?
    Luke Cage..old Heroes for Hire comics. He really began to shine when he joined the New Avengers and was given leadership roles.

    With MK his power corresponded to the phases of the moon

    I don't like Namor either but his character in New Avengers was GOAT. They abandoned BP's claim on revenge for Dr. Spectrum's which made no sense.

    Right. When his new book launched a few years ago, Marvel took away this ability. I wonder if he ever regained it or whether he will with the new run?

    I have Chris Priest trades also and I have a few of Reggie Hudlin's actual comics and both approach the character differently but they both are great read's. Most like Priest stuff because it's funnier

    I like BP. But y'all show like to overhype his books.

    Charlie Huston and David Finch's run on Moon Knight is the best modern take on that character.

    Heroes for Hire (Luke Cage and Iron Fist) have a new comic that launched last month. Should only be an issue or 2 out so far. Havent checked it out myself but maybe you'd like to check it out to learn more about the characters.
