Now that Walt Disney's Black Panther <\/em>has passed the likes of Wonder Woman <\/em>and Spider-Man 3<\/em>, it is officially the highest-grossing superhero movie of all time, in North America and worldwide, that doesn\u2019t feature either Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark. And yeah, it will soon pass The Dark Knight <\/em>in North America and both Chris Nolan Dark Knight <\/em>sequels worldwide to become the biggest comic book flick worldwide that doesn\u2019t feature Robert Downey Jr.\u2019s Tony Stark. Heck, if it gets past Iron Man 3 <\/em>($1.2b in 2013), then Chadwick Boseman can officially be anointed Earth\u2019s Mightiest Hero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biggest superhero movie without a Batman or an Iron Man<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Now that Walt Disney's Black Panther <\/em>has passed the likes of Wonder Woman <\/em>and Spider-Man 3<\/em>, it is officially the highest-grossing superhero movie of all time, in North America and worldwide, that doesn\u2019t feature either Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark. And yeah, it will soon pass The Dark Knight <\/em>in North America and both Chris Nolan Dark Knight <\/em>sequels worldwide to become the biggest comic book flick worldwide that doesn\u2019t feature Robert Downey Jr.\u2019s Tony Stark. Heck, if it gets past Iron Man 3 <\/em>($1.2b in 2013), then Chadwick Boseman can officially be anointed Earth\u2019s Mightiest Hero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second-biggest Marvel Cinematic Universe grosser in North America:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This one pretty much speaks for itself. Black Panther <\/em>has outearned (in North America) every previous MCU movie save for the first Avengers<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biggest third-weekend gross for a non-holiday weekend:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Since both Avatar <\/em>and Star Wars: The Force Awakens <\/em>benefited from New Year\u2019s Day falling on their third respective Fridays (and the general boost afforded to Christmas season releases), Black Panther <\/em>technically has the biggest third-weekend gross that wasn\u2019t part of a holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highest-grossing solo\/non-sequel superhero movie:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With $501 million in North America and $897m worldwide, Black Panther <\/em>has passed Fox's Deadpool <\/em>($363m\/$783m in 2016), Warner Bros.' Wonder Woman <\/em>($413m\/$821m in 2017) and Sony's Spider-Man <\/em>($403m\/$821m in 2002) to become the biggest non-sequel and non-ensemble superhero flick of all time. Everything else in this genre is either a team flick or a solo sequel. And even that\u2019s not a very long list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biggest superhero movie without a Batman or an Iron Man<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Now that Walt Disney's Black Panther <\/em>has passed the likes of Wonder Woman <\/em>and Spider-Man 3<\/em>, it is officially the highest-grossing superhero movie of all time, in North America and worldwide, that doesn\u2019t feature either Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark. And yeah, it will soon pass The Dark Knight <\/em>in North America and both Chris Nolan Dark Knight <\/em>sequels worldwide to become the biggest comic book flick worldwide that doesn\u2019t feature Robert Downey Jr.\u2019s Tony Stark. Heck, if it gets past Iron Man 3 <\/em>($1.2b in 2013), then Chadwick Boseman can officially be anointed Earth\u2019s Mightiest Hero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second-biggest Marvel Cinematic Universe grosser in North America:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This one pretty much speaks for itself. Black Panther <\/em>has outearned (in North America) every previous MCU movie save for the first Avengers<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biggest third-weekend gross for a non-holiday weekend:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Since both Avatar <\/em>and Star Wars: The Force Awakens <\/em>benefited from New Year\u2019s Day falling on their third respective Fridays (and the general boost afforded to Christmas season releases), Black Panther <\/em>technically has the biggest third-weekend gross that wasn\u2019t part of a holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As is again appropriate thanks to an absurdly strong box office sprint, I wanted to play another round of \u201cWhat milestones did Black Panther <\/em>set this weekend?\u201d So, without further ado, here are a dozen or so records or milestones that the Chadwick Boseman flick set or established over its third Fri-Sun frame\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
