Making the jump to Mar­vel Comics as a writer-editor in the mid-1970s, he combined a penchant for densely descriptive prose captions and character- riven narrative with the excitement of super hero drama on the first solo series devoted to the ad­ventures of the Black Panther. His groundbreaking run brought a new so­cial relevance to the series, and McGregor's vision of T'Challa, his people, and the nation of Wakanda remains influential to this day. Concurrent with his work on the Panther, McGregor collaborated with artist P. Craig Russell on Killraven in \u003ci\u003eAmazing Adventures\u003c\/i\u003e a science-fiction romance about an earthbound hero's struggles against Martian invaders. In this series, too, McGregor pushed back against the presumptions of racism: Killraven featured mainstream comics' first interracial kiss.

The 1980s would also see McGregor return to Killraven and Black Panther; the former in a lushly illustrated graphic novel with P. Craig Russell, the latter following up storylines from \u003ci\u003eJungle Action\u003c\/i\u003e in the \u003ci\u003eMarvel Comics Presents\u003c\/i\u003e anthology and a four-issue miniseries, \u003ci\u003eBlack Panther: Panther's Prey\u003c\/i\u003e.

Among his most notable work for Marvel: In the 1970s he helped introduce Deathlok in the pages of \u003ci\u003eAstonishing Tales\u003c\/i\u003e; penciled several storylines in \u003ci\u003ePeter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man\u003c\/i\u003e; and enjoyed runs on \u003ci\u003eFantastic Four\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThor\u003c\/i\u003e, and other monthly titles, including the first solo series featuring the Black Panther.

He honed a style born out of his love of fantasy stylists such as Frank Frazetta and Al Williamson and his adoration of comic art legend Jack Kirby. Like many young artists from the 1970s, Billy got his start on Warren's line of black-and-white horror mags \u003ci\u003eCreepy\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eEerie\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eVampirella\u003c\/i\u003e. Impressed by Graham's all- round talent as an artist and storyteller, publisher James Warren made Graham art director for the Warren line, a position he held until he jumped over to Marvel Comics. The first book handed to him was \u003ci\u003eHero for Hire\u003c\/i\u003e; he penciled, co-plotted, and\/ or inked the first sixteen issues of Luke Cage's title, Marvel's first ongoing series following the solo adventures of a Black character. Joining Don McGregor on the Black Pan­ther in \u003ci\u003eJungle Action\u003c\/i\u003e for his next assignment, Graham--the first Black creator to work on the character--would help to define the Wakandan warrior king for a generation of readers. Graham later reunited with McGregor for the writer's Eclipse series, \u003ci\u003eSabre\u003c\/i\u003e, in the mid- 980s. His final comics work appeared in 1985's \u003ci\u003ePower Man and Iron Fist\u003c\/i\u003e #114. Graham was also a playwright, theatrical set designer, stage and film actor, and commercial artist. He passed away in 1997 at the age of sixty-one. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWriter-editor \u003cb\u003eStan Lee\u003c\/b\u003e (1922-2018) and artist Jack Kirby made comic book history in 1961 with \u003ci\u003eThe Fantastic Four\u003c\/i\u003e #1. The success of its new style inspired Lee and his many collaborators to develop a number of super heroes, including, with Jack Kirby, the Incredible Hulk and the X-Men; with Steve Ditko, the Amazing Spider-Man and Doctor Strange; and with Bill Everett, Daredevil. Lee oversaw the adventures of these cre­ations for more than a decade before handing over the editorial reins at Marvel to others and focusing on developing Marvel's properties in other media. For the remainder of his long life, he continued to serve as a cre­ative figurehead at Marvel and as an ambassador for the comics medium as a whole. In his final years, Lee's signature cameo appearances in Mar­vel's films established him as one of the world's most famous faces. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBorn Jacob Kurtzberg in 1917 to Jewish-Austrian parents on New York's Lower East Side, \u003cb\u003eJack Kirby\u003c\/b\u003e came of age at the birth of the American comic book industry. Horrified by the rise of Nazism, Kirby co-created the patriotic hero Captain America with Joe Simon in 1940. Cap's ex­ploits on the comic book page entertained millions of American readers at home and inspired US troops fighting the enemy abroad. Kirby's partner­ship with Simon continued throughout the 1940s and early '50s; together, they produced comics in every popular genre, from Western to romance. In 1958, Kirby began his equally fruitful collaboration with writer-editor Stan Lee, and in 1961 the two men co-created the foundational text of the modern Marvel Universe: \u003ci\u003eThe Fantastic Four\u003c\/i\u003e. Over the next decade, Kirby and Lee would introduce a mind-boggling array of new characters-- including the Avengers, the Hulk, Thor, Iron Man, the Silver Surfer, and the X-Men. Kirby's groundbreaking work with Lee formed the foundation of the Marvel Universe. In the early 1970s, Kirby moved to DC Comics, where he created his interconnected Fourth World series, as well as freestanding titles such as \u003ci\u003eThe Demon\u003c\/i\u003e. He returned to Marvel in 1975, writing and illus­trating The Black Panther and Captain America and introducing series such as Devil Dinosaur and the Eternals. Kirby died in 1994. Today, he is gener­ally regarded as one of the most important and influential creators in the history of American comics. His work has inspired multiple generations of writers, artists, designers, and filmmakers, who continue to explore his vast universe of concepts and characters. He was an inaugural inductee into the Eisner Hall of Fame in 1987. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eNnedi Okorafor\u003c\/b\u003e is a Nigerian American author of African-based sci­ence fiction, fantasy, and magical realism for children and adults.

Joining Don McGregor on the Black Pan­ther in \u003ci\u003eJungle Action \u003c\/i\u003efor his next assignment, Graham--the first Black creator to work on the character--would help to define the Wakandan warrior king for a generation of readers. Graham later reunited with McGregor for the writer's Eclipse series, \u003ci\u003eSabre\u003c\/i\u003e, in the mid- 980s. His final comics work appeared in 1985's \u003ci\u003ePower Man and Iron Fist \u003c\/i\u003e#114. Graham was also a playwright, theatrical set designer, stage and film actor, and commercial artist. He passed away in 1997 at the age of sixty-one. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Writer-editor \u003cb\u003eStan Lee\u003c\/b\u003e (1922-2018) and artist Jack Kirby made comic book history in 1961 with \u003ci\u003eThe Fantastic Four \u003c\/i\u003e#1. The success of its new style inspired Lee and his many collaborators to develop a number of super heroes, including, with Jack Kirby, the Incredible Hulk and the X-Men; with Steve Ditko, the Amazing Spider-Man and Doctor Strange; and with Bill Everett, Daredevil. Lee oversaw the adventures of these cre­ations for more than a decade before handing over the editorial reins at Marvel to others and focusing on developing Marvel's properties in other media. For the remainder of his long life, he continued to serve as a cre­ative figurehead at Marvel and as an ambassador for the comics medium as a whole. In his final years, Lee's signature cameo appearances in Mar­vel's films established him as one of the world's most famous faces. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Born Jacob Kurtzberg in 1917 to Jewish-Austrian parents on New York's Lower East Side, \u003cb\u003e Jack Kirby \u003c\/b\u003ecame of age at the birth of the American comic book industry. Horrified by the rise of Nazism, Kirby co-created the patriotic hero Captain America with Joe Simon in 1940. Cap's ex­ploits on the comic book page entertained millions of American readers at home and inspired US troops fighting the enemy abroad. Kirby's partner­ship with Simon continued throughout the 1940s and early '50s; together, they produced comics in every popular genre, from Western to romance. In 1958, Kirby began his equally fruitful collaboration with writer-editor Stan Lee, and in 1961 the two men co-created the foundational text of the modern Marvel Universe: \u003ci\u003eThe Fantastic Four\u003c\/i\u003e. Over the next decade, Kirby and Lee would introduce a mind-boggling array of new characters-- including the Avengers, the Hulk, Thor, Iron Man, the Silver Surfer, and the X-Men. Kirby's groundbreaking work with Lee formed the foundation of the Marvel Universe. In the early 1970s, Kirby moved to DC Comics, where he created his interconnected Fourth World series, as well as freestanding titles such as \u003ci\u003eThe Demon\u003c\/i\u003e. He returned to Marvel in 1975, writing and illus­trating The Black Panther and Captain America and introducing series such as Devil Dinosaur and the Eternals. Kirby died in 1994. Today, he is gener­ally regarded as one of the most important and influential creators in the history of American comics. His work has inspired multiple generations of writers, artists, designers, and filmmakers, who continue to explore his vast universe of concepts and characters. He was an inaugural inductee into the Eisner Hall of Fame in 1987. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eNnedi Okorafor\u003c\/b\u003e is a Nigerian American author of African-based sci­ence fiction, fantasy, and magical realism for children and adults.

Since its inception Marvel Studios' Black Panther has provoked and stoked a wide range of interest, and now that the blockbuster film is the recipient of three Oscars the film's acclaim extends beyond the box office. No, it didn't get the top prize, but it was a barrier breaker as Ruth Carter was the first black woman to ever win in the Costume Design category; and another first for a black artist when Hannah Beachler took the trophy, which she shared with Set Decorator Jay Hart, in Production Design. Additional spice arrived when Ludwig Goransson earned an Oscar for the Best Score in a Motion Picture. These awards and other nominations for Black Panther augurs well for populist cinema that is traditionally scorned when it comes to taking home the coveted awards, particularly an Oscar, which is Marvel's first. It's a good bet the honors to Black Panther will not only boost the appreciation for populist cinema, it should also enhance the appeal of a number of products and projects such as Black Panther: A Paradigm Shift or Not? the forthcoming anthology at Third World Press, edited by Haki Madhubuti and Herb Boyd. \"All of the celebration and awards for the film is nothing to thumb your nose at and we at Third World Press extend all our good wishes and hope we can do as well with our publication,\" said Madhubuti, the press's publisher and founder. The anthology, which includes more than forty writers, film critics, scholars, and activists, has a timely appearance and should be able to reap some of the renewed media attention the film has sparked. Among the contributors are Nicole Mitchell Gantt, Jelani Cobb, Brent Staples, Abdul Alkalimat, Bobby Seale, Robyn Spencer, Diane Turner, Greg Tate, Maulana Karenga, Marita Golden, and Molefi Keta Asante, et al. As may be discerned from the contributors the anthology is a compilation of mixed views and opinions--with both praise and a critique of the film. \"The film has aroused a variety of conclusions, a wellspring of differences that we felt compelled to give them a forum,\" said Boyd. \"Like the film, the views expressed in the book are often very provocative.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBoyd, Herb:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Herb Boyd is an acclaimed author, journalist, activist and noted authority on Black History.
