The Black Mage is a 2019 graphic novel written by Daniel Barnes with art by D.J. Kirkland, released by Oni Press.Set in a fantasy world that slowly coming off of segregation of white and black people, the story follows the hero, Tom Token, who's been invited to the mystical school of St. Ivory Academy of Spellcraft and Sorcery, the first black student at the school in an effort to include more minorities.Tom's introduction is...a little more then awkward as the student body there haven't had much interaction of someone of another color and going off a lot of rumors. One who is willing to try to discern fact from fiction is one Lindsay Whitethorn who wishes to be his friend and know him better.However Tom didn't just come because he was accepted, he's on a mission to find out the secret hidden in the school. But likewise must contend with malicious forces whose prejudice thought process still remain.While its lead does wield magic, this has nothing to do with the trope Black Mage, which is just about mages in general regardless of race or color. | |

Dirty Coward: Bryce is shown to be a good fighter, but he's utterly weak-willed, going along with his father and Alexis's machinations to get their approval. When he's on the losing end, he crumples quickly. | |
