@Regrann from @17thsoulja5 - #Studio8 is #imagining a whole new #world with a comic series from #BlackMaskStudios called #Black. The series imagines a world where only #AfricanAmericans have #superpowers. The original six-issue run, created by #KwanzaOsajyefo and #TimSmith 3, follows the story of teenager #KareemJenkins, who survives a police shooting when he discovers that the hail of bullets didnāt stop him. āThe day I got shot changed my life,ā Jenkins says in the latest issue, adding, āNot because I got up, but because of all the people who canāt.ā The series draws from the #BlackLivesMatter movement and addresses issues of #policebrutality, #massincarceration, and other issues. In the universe of this comic book, there is a massive conspiracy as well to hide the existence of superpowers from not only the world but specifically the #Blackcommunity. The series began early last year with a Kickstarter campaign that quickly gained traction and notoriety until it was picked up, with ex-#Marvel and #DC digital editor Osajyefo and Smith both set as co-producers. Studio 8 EVP Creative Jon Silk has now brought the project into his comic book company, which has a distribution deal with #Sony, and the series will continue to develop under executive #RishiRajani. #foodforthought #rbg #problack #blackexcellence @dp_mind.and.soul #17thsoulja #BlackIG17th - #regrann
