Black Panther by Christopher Priest: The Complete Collection #1

In "Original Sin," the Black Panther, still reeling from his findings about the Tomorrow Fund, finds himself drawn into a dangerous temptation when Mephisto exploits his growing unease over the coup threatening Wakanda. The weight of his nation’s fate pushes him to the edge, where even the most unlikely alliances can seem like salvation.

In "That Business with the Avengers!", the Black Panther steps into the Avengers' ranks not for glory, but to keep watch—his true motive revealed only when a riot orchestrated by Achebe forces him to act. As tensions rise and loyalties are tested, his presence among the team becomes both a shield and a secret.

In "Enemy of the State, Book Two," the Black Panther confronts the United Nations with a shocking accusation: that the U.S. intelligence community orchestrated the coup in Wakanda. As tensions rise, Achebe begins his decisive move against Ramonda, setting the stage for a high-stakes political and personal reckoning.

In "The End," T'Challa tracks down Monica Lynne in Wakanda while a hijacked plane carries Dzhokhar Gapon, setting off a chain of urgent events. Back in New York, T'Challa names Everett Ross his regent before returning to the city, where Chante Giovanni Brown—known as "Queen Divine Justice"—receives a summons from Wakanda to join the Dora Milaje.

In a quiet hospital room, Nikki Adams lies recovering as Ross recounts two pivotal moments from his past: his time as regent in Wakanda, where he took part in a sacred elephant hunt, and a later encounter with the Hulk that tested his limits in the U.S. The story unfolds through these memories, blending personal reflection with the weight of legend.

In "Local Hero," the Black Panther tracks Killmonger through the streets of Harlem, where he unexpectedly crosses paths with Nightshade. Meanwhile, Killmonger—unbeknownst to the Panther—leads a quiet tour of his Wakandan heritage, revealing secrets beneath the jungle canopy.
