Hunter's family died in a plane crash that occurred right near the Wakandan border, the boy was the only survivor. James Buchanan 'Bucky' Barnes (formerly known as the Winter Soldier) is a Marvel Comics character who is the protégé and childhood friend of Steve Rogers/Captain America. Grow your minifigure collection with this AMAZINGLY HIGH QUALITY Marvel Super Heroes LEGO Bucky Barnes / White Wolf, Winter Soldier (Avengers Infinity War). In the original comics, 'White Wolf' was the nickname given to T'Challa's white-skinned adopted brother, whose real name was Hunter. 'White Wolf' is actually a nickname for a white male character who lives in Wakanda already, one that did not turn up in the current Wakandan cast line up, and who Bucky may be filling in for down the road. It's not a dig at his manbunned hair, nor is it that the kids have been watching Game of Thrones again.

The children of Wakanda have taken to visiting the weird white-skinned one-armed man, and as Shuri shoos them off, they call out a nickname to him: 'White Wolf! White Wolf!' Her project may be off to the side, and out of the lab, but it's also not that secret. He's hanging out on the edge of Wakandan territory, in a private spot by the lake, where Shuri has been working on him. Since then, Bucky has been pulled out of stasis. The Winter Soldier, was last seen at the conclusion of Captain America: Civil War, where he was taken to Wakanda and cryogenically frozen. When we last saw Bucky, he has been put into stasis at his own request in Wakanda, with T'Challa promising Steve Rogers that his friend will be well protected here. And they are obviously what Shuri's been using to help fix her broken white boys. There are enough glowing stones to go around. Those who are obsessed with certain glowing rocks can feel soothed. (The first obviously being Bucky, left in Wakanda in the Captain America: Civil War mid-credits sequence.) The references to the outside story are just subtle, like Shuri referring to Everett Ross as 'another' broken white boy for her to fix.

That's not to say that those who are really into the interconnected Marvel-verse won't enjoy this film. Who is White Wolf? How did Bucky Barnes become a kid favorite in Wakanda? What did Shuri do to him, and what is she teaching him now? Warning: Spoilers for Black Panther follow. White Wolfs weapons World War II Weapons Colt M1911A1 Barnes was issued a M1911A1 as his sidearm during World War II. But unlike some credit bumpers, this one requires a *lot* of explanation. Only one scene in the entire film would require explanation, but it comes at the very end of the credit sequence. Unlike films like Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Thor: Ragnarok, one can walk into Black Panther having never seen a single Marvel film, or ever having heard of Iron Man, and never feel lost. The character in the Black Panther Marvel Comics stories named White Wolf (whose first appearance came in 1999) isn’t Bucky Barnes, but rather another white guy altogether named Hunter. Black Panther is a remarkable Marvel film because, for once, a standalone film really is just that: a standalone.
