An exclusive preview of the young readers Black Panther Legends series reintroduces fans to Hunter, who became Marvel’s original White Wolf.
T’Challa, the King of Wakanda, is set to star in a new young readers miniseries titled Black Panther Legends, and a preview of the debut issue reintroduces Marvel’s original White Wolf.
CBR has the exclusive first look at Black Panther Legends #1 by author Tochi Onyebuchi (Beasts Made of Night, Riot Baby), New York Times-bestselling illustrator Setor Fiadzigbey (Bunheads) and colorist Paris Alleyne. The preview pages feature a young T’Challa and Hunter, with the latter growing up to take on the White Wolf mantle.
T’Challa and Hunter are shown having a brotherly bond as they run together through the Wakandan landscape, survey the city’s technological advances, and share a special moment with King T’Chaka as he gazes at his Black Panther costume.
Created by Christopher Priest and Mark Texeira, White Wolf debuted in 1998’s Black Panther #4. King T’Chaka adopted Hunter after his parents died in a plane crash just outside the Wakanda border. Even though he was viewed as an outcast, Hunter grew to love Wakanda. He developed a rivalry with T’Challa after he was born, since he was the next in line to become king after T’Chaka. Hunter would go on to lead the Hatut Zeraze, a special Wakandan police force.
A post-credits scene in 2018’s Black Panther revealed Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier was nicknamed the White Wolf while he was rehabilitated from his Hydra brainwashing. He was also jokingly referred to as White Wolf in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
Black Panther Legends #1 goes on sale Oct. 13 from Marvel Comics.
