The Lagos Comic Con and Nigerian Superheroes

Available for over a year

Tina Daheley is joined by Lagos Comic Con founder, Ayodele Elegba, to talk comics, characters and costumes coming together for the convention billed as ‘Africa’s biggest Geek event.’ Also, what might American publisher Marvel's first Nigerian superhero mean for the home-grown Nigerian comic book scene? We take a tour of The Angkor Panorama, a mysterious museum showcasing North Korean art in Cambodia and Tina talks to Song Byeok, a propaganda artist-turned-satirist, who defected from North to South Korea. From Kolkata, writer Sandip Roy explores the limits of satire through the work of the Indian comedians who keep pushing their politicians to take a joke. Also, Tina talks to Niviaq Korneliussen about her novel Homo Sapienne, which caused controversy with its candid take on Greenland’s challenging social issues.
