A week after release, Marvel's Black Panther is currently smashing all kinds of box office records, such as biggest February opening weekend, biggest non-sequel opening weekend, biggest solo superhero launch of all time, biggest President's Day weekend (in North America), biggest opening weekend for a film not directed by a white person, biggest grossing movie (in North America) to be directed by a person of black origin, biggest pre-summer opening weekend, and biggest Monday gross takings! Quite a feat for a comic book character that has so far not had much of the limelight! Critics are praising the film for its predominantly black cast in a genre that has so far been dominated by white actors playing their respective superheroes, with characters of black origin primarily being in the background - until now! The film can also celebrate as the 2nd biggest superhero opening weekend, behind Marvel's Avengers Assemble, beating other films from the genre such as Deadpool, Justice League, Batman V Superman, and The Dark Knight (after figures have been adjusted)! To celebrate the outstanding record-breaking film, here's another selection of official Displate artwork based on the popular comic book character!
