Quote1 There is a reason the Skrulls had such an easy time trying to turn the world against its heroes. Because deep down everyone knows that this could happen, and now it has. You just decided all by yourselves that you are the Earth's protectors. And that you, and only you, not your teammates or family, are trustworthy enough to include in the process... What happens when you disagree? When one of these Earth-changing moments finds you all at odds with each other, here in a secret meeting? What happens then? Walk away now. Quote2

Black Panther Vol 5 1
Quote1 'Give up...?' You are not my father. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 5 4
Quote1 Damn it, Reed, this isn't some logic puzzle for you to solve. This is a war, and we're losing. My people are dying out there! We've lost contact with your wife, your friends. We can't win if we keep playing by the rules. ... No more theorizing. I've already made the calls. Shuri was right all along. The only way to win this was to go straight for the throat. Quote2

New Avengers Vol 3 6
Quote1 I am who you are looking for. I am the Black Panther. King of the dead... And soon to be your new lord. Quote2

Quote1 We have seen so much evil in the collapsing of worlds... But now we will see something truly wicked. What's worse than facing villains with the fate of your world hanging in the balance? Facing heroes. Quote2
New Avengers Vol 3 18
Quote1 I know that look. You're wondering... What am I waiting for? Namor's biology and genetics make him incredibly resistant to damage, but even he doesn't have the ability to simply shrug off what we--and the resulting fall from this platform--did to him. It will take a second for him to fully regain his wits... And I want him completely aware of what is about to happen to him. So we will spare him a few minutes. Because I want him to know--really know--it's over. To fully realize there's no forgiveness for what he's done. That there is a price and he's finally going to pay it--that there's no mercy for men like him, and even if there was, he doesn't get any. I want him to know this is how it ends. And more than that... I want him to know... It was me. Quote2
Avengers Vol 5 40
Quote1 Victor! Your reign is over... and it ends with us. Quote2
Secret Wars Vol 1 8
Quote1 My uncle S'Yan is dead now. Murdered by another king. I loved him. But I wish he'd told me not just of the power of kings, but of the might of the people. I wish he'd warned me that they, too, have secrets. They, too, hold mysteries. They, too, possess a power all their own. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 6 2
Quote1 No more discourse. No more deliberation. No more excuses. No more mercy. We know what this is. It is war, and war is our nation's trade. It has been so for generations. We are Wakanda. We will not be terrorized. We are terror itself. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 6 4
Quote1 I am your king, boy. I am the aegis between you and all the great troubles that would break you on sight. That is my sacred duty. And whenever I fail, whenever Wakandans die, some part of me is lost. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 6 5
Quote1 I have reservations. For now though, I am content to observe... to better formulate a response at the proper time. And you? Quote2
Ultimates Vol 3 10
Quote1 I have seen too much, Captain Marvel. I can no longer defend any of this. At the beginning I could. I could. But I have grown more and more uncomfortable with my part in this. And long, long ago I learned that if you are on Captain America's side... you can rest easy knowing you are on the right side. And if he, even after what we have all experienced, would choose to protect that child Avenger's right to be... then that is what I should have been doing this entire time. If you attack me... you attack the Kingdom of Wakanda. Quote2
Civil War II Vol 1 6
Quote1 This anxiety you feel. The fear for us that led you to come to me in the first place. That formed the Ultimates. Where did it come from? What do you dream? Quote2
Ultimates 2 Vol 2 1
Quote1 I will admit this to you: Wakanda must change. I will not say what, or how -- not now in the midst of war -- but I know that there must be change. But I cannot do it alone, baba. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 6 10
Quote1 I am a king, Mother. Nothing can change this. But I will not be a tyrant. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 6 12
Quote1 No more games, Zawavari. My soul-stalker power is expansive, but it has limits. A warlock like you could have evaded me. You did not even try. I am here because you wished it. And you are well aware of why I have come. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 6 14
Quote1 Mr. Keith reached out to me weeks ago, claiming some affiliation to Wakanda. I had never heard of him, and I would have dismissed his claim... except he used an antiquated channel on the Kimoyo-net. One that only my inner circle knows exists. Quote2
Black Panther and the Crew Vol 1 3
Quote1 The Gods have forsaken the people. Some of them think their King has too. And so some of them now look to you. You should not take the faith of people lightly. Believe me. I know. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 6 17
Quote1 Aneka, respond. Ayo, respond. If you can hear me, abort the mission. Abort if you can hear me. You are in grave danger. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 6 18
Quote1 You were once human, Sam Saxxon, but you forsook humanity as you rejected your soul. You might seek to scare scientists and students -- but you do not frighten the Black Panther! Quote2
Black Panther: Soul of a Machine Vol 1 1
Quote1 How can we get the power back on, Bola? Quote2
Black Panther: Long Live The King Vol 1 1
Quote1 Wakandans are free people. There are different kinds of freedom. Quote2
Black Panther: Long Live The King Vol 1 2
Quote1 As a man of science and nature, when driving this vehicle, I am amazed at the fusion of the two. A machine that aspires to manifest a soul will be used to stop a machine that rejects its soul. Appropriate. Quote2
Black Panther: Soul of a Machine Vol 1 8
Quote1 Nevertheless -- I bow to the will of my people. Quote2
Black Panther Annual Vol 2 1
Quote1 Since the time of Bashenga, we've controlled our destiny as few other nations have. Yet my own father's death and more recent events have shown that our isolation makes us a target. Today I am taking the first steps toward ending that isolation. The world will see Wakanda and know our strength. Quote2
Rise of the Black Panther Vol 1 3
Quote1 I am the King of Wakanda. I am the nation incarnate. And on behalf of that nation, I say: Let the faith of all of Wakanda power you. That faith is more than any mutation. It is a gift of godhead, passed down from your ancestors. Claim the gift. Let this be the hour when Gods again stalk the land. The hour of the Storm. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 1 172
Quote1 I... thought I knew everything about this family, this realm. Quote2
Rise of the Black Panther Vol 1 5
Quote1 I do not even know my own name. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 1
Quote1 I am not the one who needs backup. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 2
Quote1 I'm fine. But something's wrong. Why would the Imperials send so large a force against us? Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 3
Quote1 We've cut our way out of worse. It should be easy to cut our way in. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 4
Quote1 Do you know what it is to be haunted? The Empire doesn't just steal our past, they steal our futures. How can we move forward when we do not know our names? Who we are? Who we love? Even as I have escaped, I am captured, held fast by these questions. Who am I? What promises have I made? And to whom? How can I move forward, knowing not what I am leaving behind? Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 5
Quote1 No one said this job would be easy, Avengers. Or even possible. That's why you're all here. Because none of you should be possible either. And nothing less of the utterly impossible is what I'll ask of you every time you answer our call. These are dark times, Avengers. And they are only trending further into darkness. If we're going to keep this planet intact long enough for its people to pull themselves back into the light, we'll have to do it one impossible day at a time. Today was a day unlike any other. Tomorrow will be more of the same. But that's our job description. That's why we stand together. If the world needs something to believe in, then let it believe in the power and promise of our most sacred words... Avengers assemble! Quote2
Avengers Vol 8 10
Quote1 Our world today is rife with powder kegs. You can see them in every corner of the globe. Waiting to explode. Powder kegs, I can deal with. That is the job. But what worries me most... is the explosion I cannot see coming. Quote2
Avengers Vol 8 11
Quote1 I would advise waiting. Just a little longer. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 7
Quote1 There was never a "mutual threat." You are the threat! Quote2
Black Panther vs. Deadpool Vol 1 3
Quote1 What would the man I was before think of me now? Quote2
Marvel Knights 20th Vol 1 4
Quote1 I am a fighter, baba, not a savior. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 8
Quote1 That spear you hold... it was made to be wielded by a king. Are you a king? Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 9
Quote1 Prepare for hand-to-hand, soldiers. Today, we fight -- for Agwé!!! Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 10
Quote1 I never asked for this. I never asked to be king. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 12
Quote1 You are asking me to destroy this place. You are asking me to destroy you. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 16
Quote1 What happened? N'Jadaka's death was supposed to restore your godhood. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 17
Quote1 The last thing Broo said before communication abruptly shut off was, "The Moon is hungry." Quote2
Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda Vol 1 3
Quote1 And what would you have me do then, Shuri? Allow N'Jadaka to roam free across the cosmos? Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 19
Quote1 Last time Deadpool engaged us, he invaded the Wakandan throne room, stole an experimental Panther suit and teleported the Great Vibranium Mound to New Jersey. He's dangerously insane. Whatever "Project Livewire" is, we cannot let him get to it. Quote2
Black Panther and the Agents of Wakanda Vol 1 5
Quote1 Let us not grieve today, Father. For we are here in this river of the Djalia, and time is as plentiful as the water. So tell me, Father -- what is it you would have taught? Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 20
Quote1 No matter my past, no matter my faults, I am your king. And I demand your allegiance. Quote2
Black Panther Vol 7 22
Quote1 And I would ask what those plans are -- but we have already picked up multiple distress signals. The Cotati have arrived on Earth. Quote2
Empyre Vol 1 2
Quote1 You see... I knew Jacques DuQuesne. He was human. So human it killed him. But when he died -- he died an Avenger! And everything you will never be! You were no Jacques DuQuesne, cotati. May that knowledge comfort you -- at the hour of your death! Quote2
Empyre Vol 1 6
Quote1 You failed, Khonshu, because we're the people who hold gods accountable. You are hereby under arrest. In the name of the Earth and its Avengers. Quote2
Avengers Vol 8 37
Quote1 You've traveled half the universe, stolen the power of a God, Journeyed through the realm of the dead and come back. And still you have learned nothing. Quote2

Marvel's Voices Infinity Comic Vol 1 26
Quote1 I was unable to hold on to the energy for more than a few moments, but I'm hopeful the new data gained in our attempts will lead us to the answer. We will not rest until we understand what this threat is and how to stop it. Quote2

Wolverine Vol 7 39
Quote1 You have the heart of a warrior. You are young, but you are a man of great promise. Let me teach you how to fish. Because people need you. And they'll need you for a lifetime. And when I say you, I do not mean the White Tiger. And I do not mean another Black Panther again. You have traveled these paths already. I want the man to step up. I want Kevin Cole. Are you ready for what comes next? Quote2
Kevin Cole (Earth-616)
Quote1 You are M'Baku, the very name of defiance. Quote2
M'Baku (Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda) (Earth-616)
Quote1 She was trying to get away, to control a power she didn't ask for and couldn't possibly understand...a power that exists only to protect its host and its homeworld from alien threats. And to top it off, she was going into labor. As far as I'm concerned, after everything she'd been through...the new Starbrand showed rather remarkable constraint. Gods help us all if she hadn't. Quote2
Suzanne Selby (Earth-616)
Quote1 Today we are all the Black Panther! And today we will fight as one! For Wakanda! Quote2
T'Challa (Earth-616)
Quote1 They saved the world and were lifted up as saviors. Their home was a temple--a monument erected for The Science Games. A tower pointing towards the stars, and possibly something beyond even that. They were the greatest heroes their world had ever seen. They should have been enough. Quote2
Great Society (Earth-4290001)
Quote1 Look at the readings you took of the Final Host. They're teeming with the exact same energy as these Horde creatures. Quote2

SueQuote1 You're kind. Quote2
T'ChallaQuote1 Don't tell my enemies. Quote2
OroroQuote1 Farewell, my friends. If you need us, just call. Quote2
Fantastic Four Vol 1 550
Black PantherQuote1 How do you do it, Namor? How do you bury the part of you that was good and noble so deep that all that remains is this? Some shell of the man you used to be. Quote2
NamorQuote1 Look at them, T'Challa-- flying off to save the unsaveable. The good and noble, warring against the inevitable. Is that us? Is that what you think we are? You might have been right at one time. Maybe I was that man once. Maybe you were as well. But then we both lost our people, and our kingdoms crumbled. Even now, while we do what we must to keep the things we love alive, we become everything they hate. Do you know what you bury deep, my friend? Things that have died. Who is this Namor, the good and noble? No man I know. Quote2
New Avengers Vol 3 17
NamorQuote1 "It matters." The way you people talk about your lives-- Like they mean something... "It matters." I am the greatest man I know... But compared to this, I'm nothing. Just as you... are nothing. Am I the only man here with the courage of his convictions... Or am I the only one with conviction at all? Quote2
Mister FantasticQuote1 Namor... Don't... It's not worth it. Quote2
NamorQuote1 These lines you won't cross... These things you won't do... They shame you. How dare any of you put yourself--your damned morals--above the lives of every living thing? The truth is, you people aren't worth that... And neither am I. Our lives are a pittance. A petty, small nothing... Quote2
Black PantherQuote1 Namor! NOOOO! Quote2
NamorQuote1 Of course this is worth it. Now watch... As I do what you could not. Quote2
New Avengers Vol 3 21
