T'Challa disappeared into the ether—or somesuch as would be death—at the end of 49. Kicking off 50 was this guy donning the Panther's suit, a suspended cop, Kasper Cole.
Eyeballs of insanity and a haircut like a screwtop.
The White Wolf appears and looks a lot like a distinguishly aged Tony Stark. The next issue, part one of the arc, issue 51, and Kasper looks nothing like what he did a few weeks ago in the previous outing. He looks a lot healthier for starts, and sports a haircut that looks like it might have grown within that month. But the face was totally unrecognisable. Being that the two issues had two different artists, Dan Fraga and Jorge Lucas, understandable to an extent.
In the issue following that, 52, Lucas returns and brings back a new faced Cole. For all that would seem reasonable, Cole has had some off-panel problems, a fight or two perhaps or even a major facial moulding accident, leaving him with a distorted complexion and new bone structure.
Such is the joy of watching different—hell, even the same—artists render a comicbook figure based without a real-life face. Visually confounding yet still packed with a nice story.
