Def Jam Artists To Co-Write New Black Panther Stories for Marvel
✖
Def Jam Recordings and Marvel Comics have announced a new collaboration involving Black Panther. Three Def Jam’s artists – Saint Bodhi, Bobby Sessions, and Kaash Paige – will each write short stories to be published in
Black Panther #23, #24, and #25, the final three issues of the “Intergalactic Empire” saga from Ta-Nehisi Coates and artist Daniel Acuna, ending their run on the ongoing series. To celebrate Black History Month,
Black Panther #23 will see Saint Bodhi offer her take on Storm. March's issue #24 includes rapper Bobby Sessions' story about T'Challa. In the series finale, April's issue #25, “Toxic R&B” artist Kaash Paige will tell a tale about Princess Shuri. The project is working with the Def Jam Forward initiative to "promote social, economic, and educational equality." Each story accompanies a one-page Def Jam artist profile.
