Superpowers.
The king has company.
In the once narrow world of comic book publishing, Marvel's King T'Challa from Black Panther appeared to stand alone as the only widely recognized African superhero in the industry. Today, however, while T'Challa has been reinvigorated by a new set of stories written by Ta-Nehisi Coates and global film releases, he also has an increasing number of continental compatriots as African comics and graphic novels flourish. Each of these works invites readers to imagine the possibilities of new, Africa-centered futures. |
