Black Panther: Tales of Wakanda features 18 brand-new tales of Wakanda, its people, and its legacy…
T’Challa faces the gods of his parents.

Erik Killmonger grapples with racism, Russian spies, and his own origins
And more!
The first mainstream superhero of African descent, the Black Panther has attracted readers of all races and colors who see in the King of Wakanda reflections of themselves. Storytellers from across the African Diaspora—some already literary legends, others who are rising stars—have created for this collection original works inspired by the world of the Panther and its inhabitants. With guest stars including Storm, Monica Rambeau, Namor, and Jericho Drumm, these are stories of yesterday and today, of science and magic, of faith and love.
These are the tales of a king and his country. These are the legends whispered in the jungle, myths of the unconquered men and women and the land they love. These are the Tales of Wakanda.
“What sets this anthology apart from other works on Wakanda, the fictional African country, is that it’s a compendium of prose, not comics,” noted Felecia Wellington Radel at USA Today. “There’s plenty of opportunity for the text to take you wherever it wants without constraint of an illustrated box, and the authors have distinct writing styles honed from their respective disciplines, such as poetry, blogging, neuroscience and YA fiction.”
“Black Panther: Tales of Wakanda is a must-read anthology for Marvel fans,” wrote Mia Johnson at Fansided.
“A short story anthology that celebrates T’Challa and the world of Wakanda through the voices of the authors assembled, Black Panther: Tales of Wakanda is a must-have for fans of the character,” noted Robert Reed at AIPT Comics.
“Black Panther: Tales of Wakanda really is a riveting collection of stories in the spirit of Marvel adventures,” said Tiffany at The Bliss Life. “Not only for die hard Black Panther fans, even ones new to the Black Panther universe will enjoy stories of Black excellence and adventure.”
