It ’s easy to block that Black Panther andStormused to beMarvel ’s ultimate power match . While the upshot ofAvengers vs. X - Menultimately brought their marriage to an end , Black Panther and Storm ’s relationship apparently did result in an inheritor - Azari T’challa T’chacka Evan Duke of Wakanda .
In comedian , Azari first appear inAvengers#1 by Brian Michael Bendis during the Heroic Age relaunch in 2010 . Technically the character ’s first appearance is in theanimated movieNext retaliator : Heroes of Tomorrow , release in 2008 and write by Christopher Yost . Next Avengerswas a sequel toUltimate Avengers1 and 2 , which were themselves animate re - telling of theUltimatescomics .

Azari inherits not only the Black Panther ’s superhuman ability but also Storm ’s command of the elements . With the addition of Wakanda ’s trademark Vibranium , Azari is an passing formidable warrior . He also utilize a belt that can change over into a staff , which Azari is capable of channeling electrical energy through . If that were n’t enough , he ’s even raised by Iron Man himself , Tony Stark .
Azari is part of a new generation ofNext Avengersthat include several other legacy characters . The squad includes James Rogers Jr. , the son of Captain America and Black Widow , Henry Pym Jr. , the son of Ant - Man and the Wasp , Torunn , the daughter of Thor and Sif , and Francis Barton , the son of Hawkeye and Mockingbird . In this chronicle , Ulton had killed off most of the Avengers , though Iron Man , Vision , and the Hulk still stay . The team is ultimately capable to demolish Ultron and liberate the human race from his machinelike domination .
While Marvel ’s animated universe never take off the way that DC ’s did , Next Avengersremains a fan - ducky , so it ’s not surprising Azari made the jump from animation to comics like a issue of other popular characters , not the least of which isHarley Quinn . Still , Azari has stay a largely obscure character , relegated to several time travel stories . Azari ’s current condition in comic is somewhat in question , given the rupture - up of Storm and Black Panther along with the legion other change since then .
Still , it ’s not impossible Azari - or a similar progeny - could come along somewhere down the line . Given thatStormstillretains a powerful connexion to Wakanda , it ’s not unthinkable that they could make up sometime in the time to come . Nor is it impossible that Azari could have already been conceived in hush-hush , though that would require more than a fiddling retconning . right on now Azari , along with the rest of theNext Avengers , is an interesting footer in Marvel history . Time will tell if they grow into something far more substantial .
