Black Panther was the first black superhero to appear in mainstream American comics in 1966. Fifty years later, Black Panther is having a good year. We’ll see him on the big screen for the first time in “Captain America: Civil War” next month. Today, a new version of Black Panther’s origin story hits comic shelves everywhere, written by Ta-Nehisi Coates. What should we expect?
