Even by the MCU’s standards, Black Panther was a monster hit. With a worldwide box office gross of over $1.3 billion, it entered into the top 10 highest grossing films of all time. It also recently became the first ever superhero movie to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture.

A couple of years ago, Black Panther was one of the more obscure Marvel superheroes, but now, he’s one of their most popular. The character’s fan base grew significantly last year after the movie came out. So, here are 10 Things Every Black Panther Fan Should Have In Their Home.

Black Panther: A Nation Under Our Feet Vol. 1

SEE IT NOW: $8.99 | READ IT NOW: $8.99

This is one of the darkest and most violent Black Panther storylines in the comics. It sees the peaceful and prosperous existence of Wakanda threatened by the uprising of a superpowered terror cell going by the name “The People.”

T’Challa is most comfortable in his kingdom where he rules over the people and they follow him loyally and he protects them with a mountain of the world’s most powerful substance. So, when that is tested, it creates the greatest conflict the character can face. This principle was applied in Ryan Coogler’s movie with Erik Killmonger challenging him for the throne.

Marvel’s Black Panther: The Art of the Movie

SEE IT NOW: $43.17

Concept art is an underrated part of the filmmaking process. Worlds could not be brought to life on screen without the use of concept art. Every MCU movie needs rigorous production design work to be done to realize the rich, detailed worlds on the pages of comic books on the big screen. This was even more so for Black Panther, whose conceptual artists had to create an entire country from scratch.

This book takes you through the stages of design that led to the gorgeously rendered Wakandan vistas and visceral action sequences in the movie, which is pretty fascinating.

Monopoly Game: Black Panther Edition

SEE IT NOW: FROM $27.99

Monopoly is one of the oldest and most beloved board games of all time. Its design means that it can be played for hours on end by the whole family, which has contributed to its popularity and timelessness. The Black Panther edition of the classic game is a must-have for any fan of the movie, or the character and his world in general.

The gameplay is very much like regular Monopoly, but the currency and game pieces and place names have all been changed to reflect the complex fictional world of Black Panther, with a gorgeous Wakandan landscape in the middle of the board.

Black Panther Kimoyo Blue Bead Bracelet

SEE IT NOW: $35.99

Among Black Panther’s iconic tribal wear is this bracelet with intricate symbols cut into it. This bracelet works for all kinds of purposes, whether it’s to add to a collection of MCU replica props or make a Halloween costume seem more authentic or perhaps be a nice addition to your latest cosplay.

It even comes with a certificate of authenticity, like most jewelry items do, from Marvel itself. If you’re a collector and not a wearer, the bracelet comes inside a beautiful packaging that will keep it in mint condition, so whatever you’re buying it for, they’ve got you covered.

Black Panther on Blu-ray

SEE IT NOW: $19.99 | STREAM IT NOW: $24.99

Naturally, any fan of Black Panther should have a copy of the movie to watch at home whenever they want. While origin story movies generally don’t stand rewatches, the tight plotting, exciting character development, and unconventional narrative structure of Black Panther make it one of the most rewatchable movies in the MCU.

It’s less of an origin story and more of a catch-up during a brand-new adventure – two superhero movies rolled into one. With its crisp high-def image, Blu-ray is the best way to watch movies at home. It’ll be like you’re back in the theater. Also, this home media release also includes a digital copy, so you can watch the movie on your laptop, smartphone, tablet, TV – pretty much anything you own that has a screen.

Marvel Legends Series Black Panther Electronic Helmet

SEE IT NOW: $49.97

This isn’t just a mask for a kid’s Halloween costume – this helmet from the Marvel Legends series is one step away from being actual movie quality. It covers your whole head (not just your face), it has light-up effects that make it look like it’s actually made out of vibranium like in the movie, and it has lenses that flip up and down on the eyes to switch between T’Challa mode and full-on Black Panther mode.

With such close attention to detail, this one is perfect for any cosplayer who wants to take the art of cosplaying seriously by the time the next big comics convention rolls around.

Black Panther: Shuri – Deadliest of the Species

SEE IT NOW: $10.99 | READ IT NOW: $10.99

As soon as Black Panther was released, Shuri secured her place as a fan favorite. Letitia Wright made the character fun, lovable, interesting, and cool – it’s no wonder she was just awarded the BAFTA Rising Star Award. Disney even confirmed Shuri as the latest official Disney princess. She’s also the only Disney princess (so far) to have an interest in science and technology, and one of the few with the ability to take care of herself in the face of danger. So, she’s a pretty important character.

In this comic book storyline, she isn’t just Black Panther’s badass sister – she is Black Panther. She takes the mantle from her brother T’Challa and becomes just as iconic in the role.

Funko POP! Marvel Black Panther Erik Killmonger Glow In The Dark Panther Exclusive

SEE IT NOW: $31.79

Funko POP! figurines make great little desk ornaments. Whatever pop culture icon you’re most enamored with, you can get a little figurine of them to keep you company while you work. Erik Killmonger is a strong candidate. The MCU was criticized for having a “villain problem” before Michael B. Jordan came along and brought humanity to the guy who challenges T’Challa for the Wakandan throne.

While most villains want world domination or to destroy the Avengers for no apparent reason, Killmonger’s goals were much more understandable – he simply wanted revenge for centuries of racial oppression. Can anyone really blame him for that?

Marvel’s Black Panther: The Illustrated History of a King: The Complete Comics Chronology

SEE IT NOW: $25.90

The Black Panther character has an incredible history. He was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby before the formation of the Black Panther Party with no political affiliation and debuted in a comic book alongside the Fantastic Four. Ever since then, he has bounced back and forth between making political statements and simply being an awesome superhero character.

In the decades since his creation, he has become a valued member of the Avengers and the Illuminati (the Marvel Comics version, not the supposed real-world version) and, of course, made movie history with a record-shattering solo movie in the MCU.

SEE IT NOW: $79.99

Part of Black Panther’s modus operandi is the acrobatic movements of a jungle cat, and the stance he has on this figurine displays that perfectly. It’s beautifully crafted, it has a glossy shine, and it would be right at home on a Black Panther fan’s mantle or desk or bookshelf.

The costume is accurate down to the last detail, with the iconic mask, necklace, synthetic claws – not to mention the glimmer of the vibranium it’s been fitted with. With a height of six inches and a width of nine inches, the figurine is a good size, too – not too big, not too small. It doesn’t get in the way, but it does stand out.
