Black Panther: Who Is the Black Panther #[nn]

Against a sweeping African savanna at sunset, the Black Panther surges forward in full battle crouch — all coiled menace and sleek black vibranium — with golden grasslands and a burning orange sky stretching behind him. John Romita Jr. and Klaus Janson deliver a cover that captures the king of Wakanda at his most elemental: powerful, purposeful, and completely in his element. This 2006 Marvel collection is a handsome entry point into the world of T'Challa, packaged with the kind of craft that makes it a pleasure to pull off the shelf.
