What Makes Him Love Exalted?[]
- While the mainstream Star-Lord still is quite admirable and heroic in his own right, T'Challa lacks the corrupting qualities that hinder him, instead being solely driven by his sense of justice and desire to change the world for the better.
- As a child, he was eager to explore into the unknown, despite his father warning him about the dangers otherwise.
- When the Ravagers accidentally picked him up instead of Peter Quill, he showed no fear and told them about adventurousness, something which Yondu noted.
- For twenty years, as a Ravager, he was able to convince his team to adopt a more compassionate approach, tending to steal only from the wealthy and donating it to the poor. Because of his benevolence, he was able to redeem villains from the Sacred Timeline like Taserface, Nebula, and even Thanos to abandon their previous agendas, and work together as a force for good. They are also shown to be much happier through T'Challa's guidance.
- When Korath joyously admires his deeds, T'Challa remains humble and claims he is "merely an ordinary junker". When Korath offers to spare with him, T'Challa accepts and encourages him to do his best.
- While he knocks Korath out, he feels remorseful about it and decides to recruit him into the Ravagers, redeeming him.
- Despite how dangerous the Black Order and the Collector is, when Nebula proposes stealing the Embers of Genesis from them, T'Challa accepts, both knowing they could help billions of people across millions of planets, greatly combating against hunger across the galaxy. T'Challa later manages to convince Yondu to get all the Ravagers to engage with the plan, showing how selfless and courageous he is.
- He expresses shock and anger to find out Yondu lied about Wakanda and his family being wiped out in a recording inside the Collector's collection.
- Upon being thrown in a cell with the rest of the Ravagers, while he did angrily slam Yondu into a wall and state he had no family, this was a heating up period, and T'Challa was in the right for his emotions.
- Upon being put inside an exhibition, when the Collector briefly fawns over him, T'Challa warns him on his crimes while still maintaining his integrity.
- When Carina frees him from Ebony Maw's bonds, T'Challa takes the time to thank her.
- When facing the Collector, he teams up and synergies very nicely with Yondu, and puts the past aside to defeat the kingpin.
- Upon escaping from Knowwhere, he takes Cosmo with him on the aircraft. On the way back to Wakanda, after Yondu apologizes for lying to him, T'Challa graciously accepts his apology and thanks him for showing him the galaxy.
- Introduces the Ravagers to his family back home as the family he has made for twenty years. This subverts his previous heating up period, showing how much he cares for the Ravagers.
