The same people would still be like"What about White Vulcan?".

1 black lead out of 21 movies basically makes Marvel BET for some I guess.

 

[Byakuya769]

Do those people go out into a jungle, meet a black panther and exclaim "WELL WHERE IS KKKAT?" before getting eaten?

Hahaha.

Well duh, "White Vulcan" is Spock.

"Black Vulcan" is Tuvak.

Do we really need to post some idiot's twitter post? If you search enough you can find someone saying dumb or racist shit about anything. No need to lend legitimacy to these idiots.

The Butthurt that this film will create is why I'm so thrilled that it's being made.

Serious question: Why does Black Panther have the best costume ever?

Serious question: Why does Black Panther have the best costume ever?

It's fucking amazing, seriously.

I kinda hope the cape makes it in as well, but I'm already hearing all the "BUT BATMAN" ignorance all over the place, so it's probably better that it just doesn't happen.

 

[jmood88]

are you kidding me he was legit jim brown and black belt jones in that movie, was brilliant.

No, I'm not kidding. He's a terrible actor, and I love Black Dynamite.

 

[Jinkies]

Knowing nothing about this character, that name sounds like some blacksploitation thing from the 70s.

Everyone seems to be excited, however, so I take it that it's a good enough story to compensate for the weirdness.

I'm not seeing the resemblance to batman at all outside of the pointy ears. Are pointy ears exclusive to batman now?

The Black Panther is from the 60s....and he's bad ass, read up on him, he's great.

 

[ReiGun]

There's like 3 (maybe more) characters you could call "Marvel's Batman." Panther just happens to look the most like him.

Black Panther as in black panthers, the big cat from Africa, it's what he's dressed as. He actually predates the political party.

I keep hearing people say that they can't wait to see Russo directed action scenes with BP, is this because of his role in Cap 3, or is there a chance Marvel could also have them direct the BP standalone?

The character is literally dressed like a black panther. I don't see what's so weird about that.

Cap 3.

Ummm..that was odd.

I think it's because of his role in cap 3. Winter Soldier"s action scenes were great

YES! We're laughing at legit idiots..what's the problem?

LMAO!!!

It's finally happening. Good choice!

Not counting Nighthawk.

I wouldn't mind the short cape with small simply for a decorative that he takes off before a battle.

 

[Nether!]

I still can't get over how sweet that costume art is.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Hell yeah. He would look dope when he's given the title of Black Panther at his ceremony.

 

[Lebron]

but will they be able to nail the eyes?

 

[Evil_Silver]

lol

 

[Derwind]

The cape must be long enough and he must take it off in battle to use as a distraction or something. Toss it into a shooters line of sight.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Hahaha

 

[Vandova]

That costume looks awesome!

 

[NinjaTehFish]

Wanted to see the costume With gold highlights. May as well share:

yeeaaa thats what i'm thinking of, with a collar. It can be purely ceremonial.

 

[Currygan]

Serious question: Why does Black Panther have the best costume ever?

it's fucking awesome, indeed

perhaps a bit too tight, but so it's in the comics thus no complaints

 

[JBourne]

Idris Elba was my first choice, too bad he's stuck with Heimdall. Can't wait for this though.

Never realized Elba was Heimdall, despite knowing him from The Wire. Mark of a great performance.

 

[Akainu]

bruce cant save gotham. hes just trying to keep it stable at this point.

bludhaven is done though.

was the city originally named that or is it like a sin city deal?

 

[milquetoast]

Boseman was really good in Persons Unknown. That episode with the masks

 

[Qvoth]

harnessed the mineral and used it to nurture his nation

not a comic reader here, how does he manage to harness that? isn't vibranium like able to withstand any kinetic energy or some shit

Black Panther might as well not have existed before Reginald Hudlin got his hands on him.

Hudlin made me give up on the character.

[The Abominable Snowman]

What is the chance that he will have a nude scene or two?

 

[milquetoast]

zero.

 

[Dai101]

Well this is MAHVEl so at least one shirtless scene.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

zero.

The world isn't ready for that black mamba.
