Golden Age Origin
The Red Panther gets his uniform, which supposedly comes from skin of the mythical Red Panther, from a tribal chief. He acts as a representation of the mythical Red Panther’s "stay" in the mortal world as protector of people who cannot defend themselves. Armed with his bow and arrow, the Red Panther fights using his great agility and superior strength against those who would prey upon the innocents of Africa.
Red Panther had the ability to teleport short distances, appearing in a flash of red light.
He was formerly known as the White Panther before his origin and background were changed in issue #2 of Jungle Comics.
