We have a pope, Pope Francis, who happens to be a Jesuit. However, there is no Jesuit Pope. Some public media sources often refer to the Superior General of the Jesuits as the "Black Pope" in reference to the black worn by priests of the order and the power that has been wielded by the Jesuits in the past.
