Marvel has now unveiled a list of the stories to be included in its Marvel's Voices: Wakanda Forever one-shot, coming in February 2023 just in time for Black History Month.
First up is a story about T'Challa's grandfather Azzuri from writer Adam Serwer and artist Todd Harris, known for his work as a Marvel Studios storyboard artist.
Then, the future of Wakanda is explored in a story from writer/artist Juni Ba that flashes forward to the "last" Black Panther.
The third story from writer Karama Horne and artist Alitha E. Martinez focuses on T'Challa as he teams up with a "surprising ally" as he experiences a crisis of faith.
Then there's a Shuri-centric tale from writer Murewa Ayodele and artist Dotun Akanda, in which she'll face a "dangerous new foe."
In the last of the main stories, writer Sheena Howard and artist Marcus Williams will depict a Dora Milaje trainee's final test of skill, as she faces Okoye herself in one-on-one combat.
Here's a gallery of interior pages from the one-shot, along with variant covers by Ejiwa 'Edge' Ebenebe, Karen S. Darboe, and Afua Richardson:
