Fear Itself: Black Panther - The Man Without Fear

In 2012, Marvel briefly returned T'Challa to the streets of Hell's Kitchen for a single-issue tie-in to the Fear Itself event, with striking art by Simone Bianchi. This one-shot pits the Black Panther against the chaos of the Serpent's reign, forcing him to defend his adopted neighborhood as a man without the backing of Wakanda. It's a compact, visually intense snapshot of the Panther as a street-level hero, bridging his tenure as Daredevil's replacement with the larger Marvel crossover.
