Black Panther #23
Marvel Comics
Writer: Reginald Hudlin
Pencils: Koi Turnbull
Inks: Don Ho, Sal Regla, Jeff De Los Santos
The Black Panther visits the family of the deceased super hero Goliath, which worries the American administration about his intents and opinions about the super hero civil war. The Black Panther is popular with the public and his rallying cry could be what is needed to help the anti registration rebels gain legitimacy. But before that can happen, Black Panther has to find Captain America, the rebels’ leader.
This was a quiet issue that looked in more details at the effects of Bill Foster’s death. It’s good that Hudlin asked all the hard questions by using the voices of several character. His handling of the death of Foster, Goliath’s death showed a proper sense of closure. The way he portrayed the American officials’ reasoning was more whimsical than serious. Do politicians really talk like that. Let’s hope they only do so in comic books!
Now, I took much time before reading this issue because the work of the artist annoyed me. I decided to write this specific paragraph before reading the book. This is a bad sign for a comic book. The characters look deformed with jaws melting left and right. I see a lot of weird page layouts which put more emphasis on the artist than the whole page. It is annoying and waiting more than a month to read a book one usually enjoys means Marvel Comics picked the wrong artist for this issue. Let’s hope the sales don’t suffer too much.
6/10 because the artwork was poor.
