Previous Post Those of you who are up on your Black Panther trivia, help me out here. Has there ever been any mention of any other Black Panthers by name, other than T'Challa, T'Chaka, and Bashenga? Also, has Bashenga ever been seen on-panel. Seems like I vaguely remember him being shown during the Kirby run, but I may be misremembering. Any help is appreciated!

One of T'Challa's grandfathers was named Chanda in an old Fantastic Four Unlimited issue, but that story contradicted just about everything related to Wakandan history, so it was summarily ignored. (It claimed that Chanda was the very first Black Panther, among other things.)

One of T'Challa's in-continuity grandfathers was Azzari The Wise, but I don't recall if it was ever established whether he was a Black Panther or not. He was probably King at some point, since he brokered the land deal with Canada that was used in "Enemy Of The State II", and if that's so then it's very likely that he was also a Black Panther.
