IronMan2 Map

One of the great things about the MCU is that it has given a chance for some of Marvel’s lesser known heroes to be put on the map. In some cases, literally…

During Tony and Fury’s confrontation in Iron Man 2, in the background is a map marked with all the spots of superhero activity that S.H.I.E.L.D. have detected – including New York (natch), Malibu (Tony’s house) and New Mexico (where Thor’s hammer landed).

One is pointing to the African nation of Wakanda – the home country of Black Panther, who is to make his MCU debut in Captain America: Civil War.
