“Today we are all the Black Panther! And today we will fight as one! For Wakanda!” ~ T’Challa

Although Marvel‘s Black Panther film was pushed back until 2018, we’ll be getting our first glimpse of T’Challa in next year’s Captain America: Civil War. While I’m beyond excited to see the infamous Wakandan finally get his film debut, the cosplay world – being one step ahead of the game as it often is – has already provided us with an amazing Black Panther cosplay. Behold this photo set of Shawshank Cosplay and Props Making as the King of Wakanda in all his glory, photographed by Craig’s Cosplay Corral.

And a bonus because I couldn’t help it, this is a great shot.
