To give you a rough idea, one of its episodes is set in 1260 B.C. and follows the story of a disgraced former member of Wakanda’s all-female special forces and how she pursues a man who defected from the Wakandan guard. Other episodes follow similar globe-trotting adventures featuring various Wakandan warriors traveling the world to complete their missions.
