A Fantastic Four #52 comic book, titled "The Black Panther!", is a seminal Silver Age key issue published by Marvel Comics in July 1966, featuring the historic first appearance of the Black Panther (T'Challa) and the nation of Wakanda. Written and edited by Stan Lee with iconic cover and interior art by Jack Kirby and Joe Sinnott, the plot follows the Fantastic Four as they are invited to the technologically advanced African kingdom of Wakanda. Upon arrival, they are ambushed by the Black Panther, who systematically defeats each member to test if his skills are ready for a greater, yet-to-be-revealed threat; it is only through the unexpected intervention of Johnny Storm's roommate, Wyatt Wingfoot, that the team can regroup and eventually earn T'Challa's respect as an ally.
