The Black Panther -There are two characters with the Black Panther title. T'Challa, created in the 1960s and his sister, Shuri, created more recently. T'Challa is the king of a fictional
African nation called Wakanda. The local god is the Panther Spirit, the king as
the champion of the people is considered the living avatar of the Panther God
on Earth hence the ceremonial Black Panther identity. He is married to Storm of
the X-Men (of whom, you can read here) and recently renounced the Panther identity, passing
the monarchy and identity to his sister Shuri.
