- and the rest of the world learned of the amazing riches to be found in
Wakanda. Since that day, King T'Challa has fought alone against those who
would plunder his people and nation. Along the way, he has forged a life
as a king, warrior, and sometimes superhero. Now a different king hungers

must protect not only his people's homeland... but their very souls.]

of his friends and those who consider him an ally in the superhero community.
The Black Panther is ever vigilant against those inside and outside Wakanda
who would usurp his throne and plunder the riches of his nation. And to
protect his kingdom, no price is too high for King T'Challa, even the cost
of personal relationships and presumed alliances. In this second volume
of the Black Panther series, Christopher Priest shifts his engrossing
political thriller into high gear. Accompanied by the art of Joe Jusko,
Mike Manley and Mark Bright, Black Panther: Enemy of the State is
a story of intrigue, action, and humor that will have readers on the edge
of their seats.] |
