What Will A Nigerian Superhero Be Like? by FreshGuy2(m): 11:43am On Sep 18, 2014
Your Ideas Of A Nigerian Superhero

Westerners have Superman, Spiderman, Batman etc the Asians have Toofan, Gokoo, Vegeta, Naruto etc These heroes have strengths and weaknesses but Africans seem not to have anything. . .I'd like to know what you think about a Nigerian superhero, what is his name, does he have a secret alter ego? his weaknesses, what does he fight against etc.

If marvel could exploit the Norse Mythology to give superheroes like "Thor",,,
I don't see why 9ja can't exploit its own myths and make superheroes outta them like
"Sango"
"Ogun"
"Amadioha"
"Olokun"
E.T.C....

All they need is some good writers and boom there you have it smiley

Wow just watched the video,,I must say they each got the comic look(especially the males),,
If a good/experienced comic book writer could be gotten and make the characters relatable and still stick to each 'roots',, I think it could work.....

But 9ja aint got that time,that's the problem..
