Chadwick Boseman : Heaven Just Gained A Superhero
I was in total shock. I saw in the news category that our beloved Black Panther, Jackie Robinson, and much more talented actor, Chadwick Boseman, passed away
Time, midnight August 28, 2020 I was on the internet. I decided to go onto AOL mail to see if I received anything. When I arrived on this page I was in total shock. I saw in the news category that our beloved Black Panther, Jackie Robinson, and much more talented actor, Chadwick Boseman, passed away.

I was deeply saddened by this. I never knew that he was battling colon cancer. I want to give him credit for producing such good films that put smiles on everybody’s faces including mine.
I first saw Chadwick Boseman in the movie 42, in which he played the legendary Jackie Robinson. I thought he did an awesome job playing that role.
Furthermore, I thought he was the ultimate superhero when he played the Black Panther. I first saw him as the Black Panther in Captain America Civil War. In that movie he was entertaining to watch especially when he was in the fight scene at the airport.
From there, his role as the Black Panther continued in his own solo movie, the Black Panther, Avengers Infinity Wars, and Avengers Endgame. I felt his entrance in Avengers Endgame was very dramatic when he was brought back to life from Thanos’ snap to greet Captain America.
The only thing I could say in closing was that Heaven Just Gained A Superhero. Rest in peace Chadwick Boseman and thank you for making so many people happy with your outstanding performances.
