USA Imposes Tariffs On Socialist Terrorist Wakanda in Avengers #41

But we also learn what politics Nighthawk has been playing at, in an attempt to take down King T'Challa of Wakanda, The Black Panther, in his own battle to claim the Phoenix Force. A battle of international diplomacy rather than pure superheroic force.

So we have schools of Wakandian children spending their lunch breaks hacking America? More like troll schools than troll farms? And the USA defining Wakandan kids schools as terrorist cells? Also, is Nighthawk mistaking Wakanda for a socialist state, when it's quite obviously a monarchy, with all that this brings.

Especially when they seem to solve the problems with spending money, lobbying and funding the swamp? So it looks like it will have to come down to fisticuffs after all. Well, it is a Marvel superhero comic book. Someone has to hit someone else, it's always "war war" rather than "jaw jaw".
