Black Panther #51

In "Black and White Chapter 1: The Last Temptation of Joe Pushead," Kasper Cole—posing as the Black Panther—pushes harder against the 66 Bridges gang, whose ranks include a corrupt police lieutenant, Lt. Sal Anthony, who once framed Cole’s crew. With the White Wolf offering him money and weapons to turn, Cole faces a test of loyalty and identity, refusing the offer in a moment that sets the stage for what’s to come. Written by Christopher Priest and illustrated by Jorge Lucas, with inks by Lucas and colors by Jennifer Schellinger, the issue’s cover by Andy Kubert captures the tension of a man caught between two worlds.
