Don McGregor’s Black Panther in Jungle Action #6-24 set a high-water mark for comics as a storytelling medium. McGregor is often credited with inventing the concept of the graphic novel here.
If you think you can handle it, dig our post with scenes from the issue where Black Panther fights the KKK. It’s not for the faint of heart!
For now, enjoy this awesome dinosaur fight! We love Billy Graham’s groundbreaking artwork throughout Panther’s Rage. So, don’t hold it against him that the anatomy of this Tyrannosaurus has some problems. Rich Buckler worked on the series, too. Behold his Panther art at Diversions of the Groovy Kind.
