AFRICANUM 

By "Melman" Ogana and Mutendei Writes.
The world is thrown into geopolitical chaos and forced to face the horrible legacy of the exploitation of Africa's minerals, destabilization of African governments and the legacy of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade when a super power being with power over all of Africa's minerals and the work of African slaves, rips misappropriated minerals and slave built wonders from the countries behind centuries of exploitation and builds an impenetrable wall around Africa, making Africa an independent self contained Kingdom with no borders or subversive internal governments.
These comics will be available at The World Loudest Library (WLL) store at The Alchemist during the year, in addition to other Kenyan comics already released.
