Issue Synopsis
T'Challa returns to Wakanda to find his homeland threatened by Erik Killmonger. Killmonger had been ravaging villages to attract the Black Panther's attention. When confronted by T'Challa, Killmonger dismisses the African Prince, having T'Challa fight with his leopard "Preyy". When T'Challa stops the leopard by apparently snapping its jaw, Killmonger finishes off a fatigued T'Challa and throws him over a waterfall.
