Title:

Black Panther

Synopsis:
WHO IS THE BLACK PANTHER?”

While the Black Panther furiously battles the Black Knight 5 miles above Wakanda, Klaw and his team lay siege to the Royal Palace in search of the ultimate prize: The Queen Mother herself! Part 5 (of 6).

There are some places you just don’t mess with Wakanda is one of them. Since the dawn of time, that African warrior nation has been sending would-be conquerors homein body bags. While the rest of Africa got carved up like a christmas turkey by the rest of the world, Wakanda’s cultural evolution has gone unchecked for centuries, unfettered by the yoke of colonization. The result: A hi-tech, resource-righ, ecologically-sound paradise that makes the rest of the world seem primitive by comparison.

Ruling over all this is T’Challa, the heir to the centuries-old warrior cult that’s served as wakanda’s religious, political, and military head since its inception: The Black Panther. Anyone who’d dare to make a move on Wakanda must go through him.

And someone does dare. His name is Klaw - and along with his team of super-powered villains - he’s waged an all-out assault on Wakanda, aided and abetted by the Nigandan Army, made available to him by that country’s corrupt Prime Minister, M’Butu. As the battle rages, the scorecard’s close: T’Challa and the Wakandan Air Force put down the Rhino and the Black Knight, but not before Klaw and his lieutenant - Batroc - managed to penetrate the private chamber of the Queen Mother herself. With the Radioactive Man in hot pursuit of T’Challa’s sister - Princess Shuri - in the caves beneath the palace, and Klaw holding a loaded gun to the head of T’Challa’s mother, what can the Black Panther possibly hope to do?

And meanwhile, some very special forces hit the beachhead, courtesy of a very interested United States.
