\n 2026 marks the 60th anniversary of one of Marvel Comics’ most iconic characters: Black Panther. Today, we’re sharing details with you on the Black Panther Anniversary Special, including its creative teams. \n <\/p>\n

Next February, Marvel Comics will proudly pay\u00a0tribute to one of its most groundbreaking superheroes in Black Panther Anniversary Special #1.<\/p>\n

The landmark oversized one-shot celebrates 60 years of T’Challa and Wakanda with brand-new, thrilling stories from a lineup of fan-favourite writers, artists, and those who have helped define Black Panther’s incredible legacy, including writer Christopher Priest.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The publisher has shared a full breakdown of the stories we can look forward to, which you can find in full below:<\/p>\n


\n\tWriter Evan Narcisse (Wakanda, Sam Wilson: Captain America) and artist George Jeanty (Star Wars: Mace Windu) bring back former Black Panther, Kasper Cole! In this framing story, join Cole as he searches for Wakanda’s exiled king, learning about some of T’Challa’s never-before-told adventures in the process. <\/p>\n


\n\tCole also pays a visit to the former Queen of Wakanda in a tale by acclaimed Storm writer Murewa Ayodele and rising star artist Eder Messias (Sam Wilson: Captain America). Listen in as Storm shares an intimate memory from her time by T’Challa’s side, when their love was powerful enough to overcome any threat against them! <\/p>\n


\n\tCody Ziglar (Miles Morales: Spider-Man) joins forces with veteran Black Panther artist Alitha E. Martinez for a Black Panther\/Blue Marvel team-up! Dr Adam Brashear recounts their time together in the Ultimates and reveals what T’Challa taught him about strength and leadership! <\/p>\n


\n\tSuperstar writer Christopher Priest returns to his groundbreaking Black Panther with a surprising encounter T’Challa had with Magneto, set during the time the Master of Magnetism ruled his own African nation, Genosha. <\/p>\n

Black Panther’s 60th anniversary coincides with an exciting status quo shift for the character. The King of Wakanda is currently trying to unite his kingdom\u2014both on Earth and in the stars\u2014in Black Panther: Intergalactic, a four-issue limited series by Victor La Valle and Stefano Nesi debuting next month.<\/p>\n

In addition, Black Panther will team up with different heroes throughout February in a new line of variant covers by Marvel\u2019s Stormbreakers. In terms of the MCU, Black Panther 3 is in the works, and Letitia Wright will return as Shuri in Avengers: Doomsday next December (where we also anticipate meeting the next T’Challa).<\/p>\n
