| Summary |
As a new recruit of the Dora Milaje on her very first mission outside of Wakanda, Okoye is sent to Brownsville, a neighborhood of Brooklyn that's experiencing extreme gentrification. Spending time with the other young people of Brownsville, Okoye soon learns about the plans of Stella Adams, a wealthy, powerful real estate mogul who is behind most of the gentrification in the neighborhood, but she is shocked to discover Adams's hand in a more sinister plot: one involving a drug called PyroBliss that seems to be consuming Brownsville. While her captain, Aneka, and her King, T'chaka, refuse to take action, Okoye is conflicted about what to do. She wants to help her new friends but doesn't want to jeopardize their diplomatic mission, and Okoye is forced to make a decision. |
