Last week, Marvel Comics shocked the world with the release of Marvel Knights: The World to Come #1. Written by\u00a0former Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada and famed Black Panther scribe Christopher Priest, the first issue ended by revealing this alternate future’s new Black Panther.<\/p>\n

Ketema is the son of T’Challa and\u00a0Monica Lynne, and after he bests his father in combat and earns the right to rule over Wakanda, we learn that he’s a white man with blonde hair. Unsurprisingly, the\u00a0reaction has been vocal and isn’t all that different from the outrage that surrounded Captain America’s big “Hail HYDRA” moment (later revealed to be the result of his reality being rewritten by a Cosmic Cube).\u00a0<\/p>\n

While we’re not expecting an explanation quite that drastic, a white man being Black Panther is certainly controversial. We have reason to believe that there are more twists to come in this story in the coming months, but as of now, Black Panther is indeed white.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Today, Marvel Comics has released a first look at the Marvel Knights: The World to Come #4 cover. In the issue,\u00a0the full scope of Priest and Quesada’s epic comes into focus as the whole of the Marvel Universe faces the world to come.<\/p>\n

T’Challa’s mysterious heir Ketema is not to be underestimated and threatens to reshape Wakanda’s destiny forever.\u00a0T’Challa always has a plan, but since we already know this ends with his death…does his plan come up short?<\/p>\n

We also have\u00a0the cover for issue #3. On that, we see two young boys, suggesting that T’Challa might have had to swap his real son for\u00a0Ketema. If so, it would be similar\u00a0to how\u00a0Darkseid and Highfather exchanged their infant sons in the DC Universe (they grew up to become Mister Miracle and Orion).\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I always assumed it would take a very special project (and perhaps a herd of Clydesdales to drag me off the sofa) for me to return to Black Panther, the Marvel character with which I am most closely identified,”<\/strong>\u00a0Priest previously shared.<\/p>\n

He added, “This Marvel Knights revisit, and Joe Quesada\u2019s expansive vision for The World to Come, has created unique opportunities for me to say something new with and contribute to the Panther\u2019s legacy while reviving the social and political complexity, pathos and humor, that made the Marvel Knights Panther so memorable. It\u2019s nice to be home again.”<\/strong><\/p>\n
