Tony Stark has flown to Wakanda for the dedication of a new Stark Industries facility there, and well...
...he's still Tony Stark, no matter the country.
Meanwhile, Rhodey, who's still just Tony's pilot at this point, is also having some luck with the Wakandan ladies:
He's just sitting there reading a Playboy, and he still attracts the ladies. How badass is that?!?
Meanwhile, Tony's charms are working, too...
But even though the other Wakandans aren't too happy about Tony makin' time with their ladies...
...they have nothing to worry about, because all is not as it seems:
See, Tony is really there to help T'Challa flush out revolutionaries trying to sabotage Wakanda's vibranium supplies. No time for love!!
Oh, and speaking of revolutionaries...
D'oh!!
Love is never what it seems in Wakanda. And Rhodey will never be quite the ladies' man that Tony is.
BTW, this story featured the Mandarin using the reanimated corpse of Killmonger to try and destroy all of the metal in Africa, Asia and Europe, because COMICS. That had damned well better be the plot of Black Panther II...
From Iron Man Annual #5 (1982)

The First Time Electro Was Race-Swapped
Hey, look who's running amok in Denver!
Fortunately, the Guardsmen are around to take care of this minor menace!
But wait...
Yeah, Rhodey wore white-face.
See, this was during Armor Wars, and Tony needed a "Trojan Horse" inside the Vault to let him in so he could destroy all of the Guardsman armors. So the obvious solution: Have Rhodey paint his face and pose as Electro. Because seriously, who would have ever believed a black Max Dillon?
