T'Challa turns him down and leaves peaceably, but as he leaves Namor's abode, he and the Dora Milaje are confronted by Doctor Doom. Hours later, the Black Panther's aircraft crash lands in Wakanda with him critically wounded inside. With T'Challa in a coma, protocol demands a new Black Panther take up the mantle to defend Wakanda. What happened to T'Challa, and who will fill his shoes?
