🧭 PLOT SUMMARY

Set approximately one million years ago, Eyes of Wakanda explores the origins of the Black Panther legacy through the story of Mosi, the first Wakandan to survive the Heart-Shaped Herb and be chosen by the panther goddess Bast. Empowered with superhuman abilities, Mosi defends Wakanda from cosmic threats brought by the Mena Ngai meteor, including creatures like the Brood. 

Mosi's journey leads him to join the Stone Age Avengers, a group of primordial heroes including Odin, to combat universal threats such as the Fallen Celestial. His actions lay the foundation for the Black Panther lineage and Wakanda's enduring legacy. 

The series also follows the Hatut Zaraze, Wakandan warriors who, across different eras, undertake perilous missions to retrieve vibranium artifacts from around the world, ensuring the safety and secrecy of Wakanda.
