[edit] Plot
T'Challa, the Prince of Wakanda, returns from the outside world to learn the kingdom is being attacked by the alien Chitauri. Herr Kleiser, the alien shape-shifter who battled Captain America during World War II, kills T' Challa's father in combat and seeks Wakanda's store of vibranium, the metal the Chitauri use to manufacture their ships and weapons. After becoming King and assuming the alias of the Black Panther, T' Challa seeks the aid of Captain America. General Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. orders the Ultimate Avengers to assemble, with the exception of Thor (who is unavailable) and the Hulk (his alter ego Bruce Banner is being kept under surveillance).
Despite a misunderstanding in which the Ultimate Avengers are attacked by the Wakandan soldiers, the Wasp (Janet van Dyne-Pym) being injured and Captain America's shield being stolen, the team rally and together with Thor battle the alien Chitauri. Banner then deduces that gamma rays will weaken vibranium and sends Betty to Wakanda with a gamma-ray projector. With this weapon the Chitauri are weakened, and Iron Man and Giant Man (Hank Pym) manage to destroy the core of an attacking Chitauri vessel. Giant-Man, however, is fatally injured and dies. The team depart with the thanks of the Black Panther, and on returning learn that Banner survive and he becomes the Hulk and escaped.
