The Gatherers arrive in Wakanda to kill the Black Panther, but the Avengers are hot on their tail to stop them.

The Gatherers come to Wakanda, attacking Black Panther for what they refer to as a gather. He must die and his essence given to the Coal Tiger, a version of T'Challa from another reality, so that the Coal Tiger can exist on this world. The Avengers arrive shortly after the Gatherers to defend their fellow Avenger, and it is a rematch between the Avengers and the Gatherers. The Coal Tiger refuses to allow anyone to die so that he may live, and the Swordsman finally begins to see the truth of the Gatherers through his damaged and clouded mind.
