1st app of the Black Panther (T'Challa); Jack Kirby cover/art; Inhumans app (7/66) Comic Book Impact rating of 9 (CBI)Stan Lee kept his fingers on the pulse of the streets during the turbulence of 1960's America—and, in an inspired move, he joined Jack Kirby in creating the Black Panther as Marvel's very first black superhero, The introduction of Prince T'Challa to the Marvel Universe was clearly history in the making. Considering the unbridled success of the character's silver screen career, this comic—featuring the Black Panther's very first appearance—has become a prime focus of collectors, seeing a meteoric rise in value over the past few years.
Artists Information
Jack Kirby is called 'The King of Comics' for a reason, during his career that spanned six decades he gave us many of the most iconic characters the medium would ever see. From his introduction of Captain America at the height of World War II it was clear he wasn't your ordinary comics artist. But it was his creative explosion at Marvel Comics in the 1960's that cemented his legacy, over a short period of time Kirby would give us The Fantastic Four, Iron Man, The Hulk, The X-Men, Thor, Ant-Man and Nick Fury just to name a few. Kirby would then go to DC and create his Fourth World, introducing Darkseid, Mister Miracle, The New Gods and a host of cosmic supporting players. Long live The King.
