==Biography==
===Robbery of the Museum of Great Britain===
On a rainy day, Manning headed to the Museum of Great Britain's cafeteria to get some tea. She noticed that the barista was new and greeted her, learning that the barista was American in the process. Manning welcomed her to the museum before ordering a black tea with milk and sugar. Manning observed the busy atmosphere of the museum before getting her drink from the barista, sipping from it as she left.
On her way back to her office, Edmund approached Manning and informed her that a man in the West African Wing of the museum had asked to meet with her, confusing Manning. Edmund explained that the man seemed to be examining artifacts as if he were in a shopping mall, to which she thanked him for informing her before heading to meet with the man. Upon entering the wing, Manning greeted the man and offered to shake his hand, although the man ignored her offer. The man asked her about the history of a number of the museum's artifacts before eventually focusing on a particular mining tool with which he seemed particularly interested. Assuming the man wanted more information on it, Manning attempted to explain that the tool was a seventh century mining hammer from the Fula Tribe of Benin, but the man cut her off and finally offered a handshake to the confused director, introducing himself as Erik Killmonger.
Killmonger claimed that Manning knew a great deal about artifacts but that the hammer was actually a two thousand year old artifact from Wakanda made out of pure vibranium. Killmonger asserted that Manning likely wouldn't have heard of or have had many items from the country, as they were known for being "possessive" of vibranium. While Manning could only stutter in confusion, Killmonger menacingly implied that he would take it from the museum. Before Manning could call for security, she felt a sharp pain in her stomach and collapsed, finally succumbing to poison slipped into her tea by the barista. and collapsed, suffering a heart attack. With Manning unconscious, Killmonger, along with Ulysses Klaue, Limbani, and the barista, Linda, incapacitated nearby security guards and were able to escape the museum with the vibranium artifact.Black Panther: The Junior Novel
