We learn that the children of Wakanda refer to Bucky as the “White Wolf,” which is the name given to an outsider stranded in Wakanda. Still, there is one interesting bit of information provided in the scene that may hint at something bigger to come. Plus, considering Black Panther is the final Marvel movie before Infinity War hits, it’s hard not to be disappointed that the film doesn’t do much else to set up the imminent arrival of Thanos. Showing Bucky Barnes alive and well in Wakanda after being put into a deep freeze at the end of Captain America: Civil War is pretty much exactly what we expected to happen since Bucky is featured in the trailers for Avengers: Infinity War. On the surface, Black Panther’s final post-credits scene is a bit of a letdown. The other heads look like they belong to Ares (yes, Marvel and DC both have a version of the Greek God of War) the swam monster Man-Thing and the Mighty Bi-Beast, an enemy of the Hulk with two heads stacked on top of each other who is actually an android designed by an extinct race of aliens. Once Thor reclaimed his hammer, Odin gave Bill a hammer of his own and the two became longtime allies. Beta Ray Bill is a character who wielded Mjolnir for a time, proving to be worthy of the God of Thunder’s power while he was out of commission. Most likely, this is Beta Ray Bill himself, thus confirming that the character exists in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The one of particular note to Thor fans is the Korbinite skull, a race of intelligent, humanoid aliens with heads shaped like much like a horse’s. We see that the Hulk’s bust is still under construction but other skulls are adorning the walls, each one a reference to a specific character from Marvel lore. The Hulk may be the Grandmaster’s (Jeff Goldblum) favorite champion, but he’s had other beloveds in the past, which he honors with massive busts on the outside of his palace.
