The Wellington Comic Lover’s Guide to... Black Panther

It's the Wellington Comic Lover’s Guide to the king of Wakanda, the Black Panther!

The Black Panther is a ceremonial title bestowed upon the head of the royal family line of Wakanda, a technologically advanced nation in central Africa that has remained uncolonized and is known for its store of the rare energy-absorbing metal Vibranium. After the death of King T'Chaka, the role falls to his son T'Challa, a stoic and studious young prince. Empowered by a suit of Vibranium and a heart-shaped herb that increases his strength and speed, T'Challa now defends his nation and the world as the Black Panther.
