"BLACK" tells the story of young protagonist Kareem Jenkins, gunned down in a hail of bullets by racist police, yet somehow miraculously survives and escapes with the help of Juncture, a mysterious mentor who reveals to Kareem a secret known only by an elite few: An unknown percentage of the world’s black population have superpowers. This has been known for millennia and kept secret from those in society who seek to exploit these abilities for their own gain.

Interesting idea besides the fact only black people have special powers. I think them doing that alienates a huge demographic.
The rough artwork the one gentleman was doing looked really nice though and I like the way it seems how the main character finds out he has powers. Hopefully it takes off though -
This sounds like a concept I had in my head for years except a more spiritual meaning behind it and less insults on white ppl because a white female detective is one of the main characters.
