Avengers: Secret Wars Rumor Teases Black Panther

Marvel's Comic-Con announcements have kicked things into overdrive, and now rumors are swirling that the new Black Panther could show up in Secret Wars sooner than anyone expected. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is dropping this week, plus Avengers: Doomsday is on the horizon—but Secret Wars is where Marvel's really stacking the deck. The timing suggests Marvel might be planning something wild with the character integration. For what it's worth, if they're bringing back Black Panther early, it signals they're confident in the replacement and want maximum synergy.
