Eyes of Wakanda Might Connect With Black Panther’s Ulysses Klaue

If we look back in the 2018 film Black Panther, Ulysses Klaue was assigned to steal Wakanda’s coveted vibranium, which was something nobody could ever do until Klaue was ordered by Prince N’Jobu. According to the film, Klaue is an immensely ruthless foe who was introduced in Avengers: Age of Ultron, and is considered as a fierce black market arms dealer.

Even though in Black Panther, the villain did not succeed in stealing all the vibranium he still managed to get a quarter ton of the dominant material, killed numerous innocent Wakandan people with an explosive, and broke free from the Wakandan captivity.

As the story follows the brave and resilient warriors tasked to retrieve vibranium artifacts, there might be a chance that Klaue or his backstory might appear in Ryan Coogler’s animated series. However as the studios haven’t shared many details about the upcoming project, keep coming back till we gather every important and noteworthy information about Eyes of Wakanda.
