- There’s a case to be made that Black Panther might be richer than the characters Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark.
- T’Challa — Black Panther — is king of the state of Wakanda, one of the most technologically advanced nations in the Marvel Universe.
- The mineral wealth of the fictional country alone would be worth more than than GDP of the entire real world — and more than the worth of Batman or Ironman.

But while Wayne and Stark may be titans of industry, T’Challa is the king of an entire country. And not just any country.
