Most of the Black Panther comic books offered by Comixology are free to download, without any official announcement from the Amazon-owned service.

The free comic books, as spotted on Reddit, cover a variety of Black Panther series, including the King of Wakanda’s origins and his more recent adventures. Also going free are titles that focus on T’Challa’s sister Shuri and on villain Killmonger.

To find the comic books, log on to Comixology’s website, search for Black Panther, and click on Single Issues. This will return several pages of free titles, and while it may take a while to download everything, it will be worth it.

There is no announcement from Comixology regarding the free comic books, but it is most likely a tribute to Chadwick Boseman, who brought the Black Panther to life in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He passed away at 43 years old due to colon cancer.

Digital Trends has reached out to Comixology for confirmation on how long the Black Panther comics will stay free to download. We will update this article as soon as we hear back.

Long live the king

The death of Boseman, most popularly known for his role as the King of Wakanda but also for his work in Da 5 Bloods and 42, was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2016. He filmed several movies, including Black Panther, between surgeries and chemotherapy.

The final tweet by Boseman’s official Twitter account, which announced his passing, is the most-liked tweet ever in the history of the social network. Twitter also reinstated the #BlackPanther emoji, as Boseman’s fans organize watch parties for Black Panther.

Bowers & Wilkins debuts Px7 S3 headphones, teases Px8 S2

Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3.

Bowers & Wilkins (B&W) has just taken the wraps off its latest wireless headphones, promising better sound, noise cancellation, comfort, and other improvements. The Px7 S3 will be available in Anthracite Black, Indigo Blue and Canvas White, and are being touted as the brand's most advanced wireless headphones so far. But that title might not last long -- B&W has also said that its next flagship, the Px8 S2, is in the works and should be available later in 2025.

The announcement of the Px7 S3 has been partially affected by the tariff situation in the U.S. While B&W has fully launched the headphones in the U.K., where you can order them right now for 399 British pounds (about $531), availability in North and Latin America hasn't been confirmed. Currently, buyers are being encouraged to click a notify me button on the Px7 S3 product page to find out as soon as these details have been finalized. Strangely, both the U.S. and Canadian product pages display pricing: $429 and $599 CAD respectively. It's possible these prices -- especially the U.S. price -- will change by the time you can order them.

Moto Buds Loop preview: the most daring and sparkly headphones we’ve ever seen

Motorola Buds Loop

Motorola announced a number of new devices at a launch in New York, but while the new Razr Ultra 2025 is my pick of the bunch, the Moto Buds Loop are impossible to ignore.

Taking a design approach very similar to what Huawei offers with its FreeClip earbuds that became available in early 2024, the Moto Buds Loop have an open ear design and they come in two colours, one of which has a very sparkly twist.
