The final volume of Ta-Nehisi Coates' landmark run is the end of an era for the Black Panther! The groundbreaking story reaches a tipping point as the ruthless N'Jadaka comes for Earth! To protect our planet from N'Jadaka's violent invasion, the nation of Wakanda must go to war against its own future...and its first, best and only hope lies in the Panther! But where is he? Even the gods are beginning to despair -- but Bast will not abandon her avatar, even if she has to recruit an outsider to save him! Coates brings T'Challa full circle back to the home he left behind...and the crown he has never fully accepted. This is the story of a king who sought to be a hero...a hero who was reduced to a slave...a slave who advanced into legend!
