THE FIGHT

In ‘Captain America #100‘ (1968), Captain America responds to a distress call from T’Challa boarding a ship. He lands in Wakanda and is immediately attacked by the Black Panther and his men.

A battle ensues where each combatant tests each other’s strengths.

It turns out that the fight is actually a test! Black Panther explains he recruited Captain America due to a threat: “destructive heat rays from an orbiting satellite that Wakandan rockets have failed to destroy.” The two heroes take off to investigate.
