Black Panther #44
In "Enemy of the State II Book Four: 60 Minutes," Christopher Priest and Sal Velluto deliver a tense, high-stakes chapter of Black Panther’s ongoing battle against a shadowy conspiracy, as Tony Stark uncovers a chilling truth: the leaders of the U.S. and Canada have been replaced by future-dwelling impostors using the mysterious power of King Solomon’s Frog. With the revelation that T'Challa’s adopted brother, White Wolf, has seized control of the rogue organization XCon in retaliation for a past betrayal, the fate of two nations hangs in the balance. The cover by Sal Velluto captures the moment’s urgency, while the interior art by Velluto, inked by Geiger and colored by Schellinger, brings the political thriller’s escalating tension to life.
