Behind the graphic 

novel series…

Eposi Litombo

Series Creator, Writer & Creative Director

A storyteller, student of West African history, martial artist, former stunt performer, super auntie, rock star sister, friend, apple of her parents’ eyes and Prime Minister of enjoyment, Eposi created this series inspired by West & Central African folklore and historical events. She is driving the project forward using illustrative, culturally specific creative briefs and project management experience. 

Eposi uses these life experiences and extensive travels across the continent of Africa to fuel her cinematic imagination.
