Shuri is queen, but her rule is unstable after Wakanda was briefly occupied during the Apocalypse crisis. Secret tensions with neighboring African nations have reached a boiling point, particularly with N'Gabo, a mysterious and militarized country with rumored ties to an ancient empire.

As conflict erupts, both nations must reckon with ancient promises made to the Celestials — and a weapon buried in the ocean that could awaken Galactus himself.
