This issue begins with T'Challa meeting head of the trade delegation, Malaika. Malaika's source, Frank Littel, has information on the location of the missile base and a map of the installation. T'Challa makes a deal of 25 million francs and his Avengers ID card, for this information. T'Challa arrives at the missile base, and decides to strike a deal with General Pieter Moorbecx. His life, for the survival of his country. General Moorbecx sets up a live broadcast for the Black Panther's surrender. Instead, the Black Panther gives words of courage to all people under oppression in Azania, and engages in a brawl with all of General Moorbecx's soldiers. As he tries to escape, he gets caugh by a knockout gas cloud, and is subdued. Chained inside his cell, a large cat like figure emerges from the shadows, it his the embodiment of the Panther God.
