After a vibranium-rich meteorite fell on its territory, Wakanda became an extremely advanced nation, developing technologies far beyond the imagination of the rest of the world. To protect its secrets, the country lives hidden under the guise of a poor and isolated nation, protected by an invisible barrier that separates it from the outside world. In the present day, King T'Chaka debates with the council the possibility of opening Wakanda's borders to the world, facing resistance from those who wish to preserve the kingdom's traditions. However, the discussion is interrupted when the mercenary and arms dealer Ulysses Klaw invades and assassinates the king. With his father's death, T'Challa is forced to assume the throne sooner than expected. While Klaw is hunted by White Wolf, the king's adopted son, T'Challa must prove his worth as a ruler and warrior, officially becoming the new Black Panther. At the same time, a new threat emerges: M’Baku, leader of the Jabari tribe, who desires to conquer the throne and transform Wakanda into an aggressive military power, breaking with its traditions. After being defeated by T’Challa in the ritual combat for the throne, M’Baku finds Klaw wounded and hiding in the forest. In exchange for help in taking Wakanda, he decides to protect T’Chaka’s assassin. Now, T’Challa will have to fight to defend his kingdom, his beliefs, and his family’s legacy, while discovering what kind of king he wants to be and what the future of Wakanda will be.
