Marvel fans were properly introduced to King T'Challa with the
Black Panther solo film earlier this year. Now, Marvel and Disney are looking to expand upon his adventures with
Marvel's Avengers: Black Panther's Quest, which is the fifth season of Disney XD's animated series
Avengers Assemble.
Set to debut September 23 on Disney XD, the upcoming season will focus primarily on the adventures of
Black Panther as he struggles to balance his duties as a member of the Avengers and King of Wakanda. A new first look trailer for the upcoming series gives us a taste of the action and humor fans can expect from
Marvel's Avengers: Black Panther's Quest, as the titular hero fights alongside his sister, Shuri, and his fellow Avengers, including Captain America and Iron Man.
As the mysterious Shadow Council rises to challenge Wakanda, T’Challa teams up with his sister Shuri to go on missions that no other Avenger can. It’s a globe-trotting journey of espionage and mystery as old foes resurface and new friends are made. In the end, Black Panther must balance defending his home and stopping threats before they start. Is he a sword or a shield? Only he can decide.
Marvel's Avengers: Black Panther's Quest premieres Sunday, September 23, at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on Disney XD.
