As we learned in Black Panther, Wakanda is home to many riches, most notably Vibranium. Those in the know, like the villainous Klaue, will do anything to get their hands on the material in order to use it for dastardly purposes and/or sell it to the highest bidder. In the third short in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes â Black Panther: Trouble in Wakanda, Klaue and Killmonger take Shuri in order to use her to access the precious substance, and you catch the exclusive debut of “The Maze of Tal-Recs” right here at Nerdist.
Of course Shuri has the situation handled because she’s a literal genius, but it’s a blast to watch T’Challa and Okoye work together. And yes, that’s an evergreen statement. Whether T’Challa and Okoye, the general of the Dora Milaje, are storming the field together in battle or dodging brick-triggered traps in a LEGO maze, I’m here for it. They’re more than a match for the Maze of Tal-Recs and Klaue and Killmonger, and thanks to the nature of LEGO stories, they crack charming jokes along the way… though the end of the short is quite serious.
What will happen next? Will they stop Killmonger? Well, “The Maze of Tal-Recs” is the third short in a series. All five shorts in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes â Black Panther: Trouble in Wakanda will air on Disney XD on June 3 at 11AM ET.
