A ground-breaking anthology celebrating Marvel's beloved Black Panther
and his home of Wakanda, penned by an all-star cast of authors such as
Sheree Renée Thomas and Nikki Giovanni.
T'Challa faces the gods of his parents. Vampires stalk Shuri and a
Dora Milaje in voodoo-laced New Orleans. Erik Killmonger grapples with
racism, Russian spies, and his own origins. Eighteen brand-new tales of
Wakanda, its people, and its legacy.
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.
Featuring stories by Linda D. Addison, Maurice Broaddus, Christopher
