A superhero from the streets of Lagos

Ayodele Elegba is the founder of the Lagos Comic Con and Spoof Media studio in Nigeria. Along with his fellow artists and animators, he's reinventing the comic book genre to tell African, rather than Western, stories. This home grown Nigerian narrative features characters such as his creation, Boxer, a superhero who fights corruption on the streets of Lagos.
