Last year, we went a little crazy for the footage we saw of the "Black Panther" animated series developed by Bet. Featuring award-winning actor Djimon Hounsou as the voice of Wakandan leader T'Challa (a.k.a. The Black Panther), the six-episode series debuted on iTunes back in June and now arrives on DVD next week, courtesy of Shout Factory and Marvel Knights Animation.
The animated series is based on the celebrated "Black Panther" comic book arc written by former Bet President of Entertainment Reginald Hudlin and veteran artist John Romita Jr. ("Kick-Ass"), and uses a motion-comic style of animation.
Along with bringing you the exclusive clip above featuring a young Captain America's first encounter with Black Panther, I spoke to Hudlin about the series' journey from the page to the screen.
MTV News: Black Panther isn't necessarily a top-tier character, but you managed to recruit some top-tier talents for the series' cast and creative team.
