About Black Panther

The Black Panther movie is based on a comic book series from Marvel Comics. First published in July 1966, the comic was originally created by legendary comic book writer Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

The comic was groundbreaking at the time since it was the first mainstream American comic series to feature an African-American hero as its titular character during a period of social upheaval surrounding desegregation and the Civil Rights Movement in the United States.

Much like the film, the comic book centers around T’Challa, the king and tireless defender of the fictional African nation of Wakanda. Debuting in the Fantastic Four comic book series, the Black Panther draws his powers from ancient Wakandan rituals as well as his physical strength, expertise in science, hand-to-hand fighting abilities and advanced technology.
