A view on African Comic Culture


Child education, every child needs to be educated. Education in years has seen many phases. 
Now there are playschools, universities, certification institutions. They teach different skills, 
provide knowledge, are helpful in further studies. What they lack is how to teach life skills?
The traditional and most interesting way is comics. African comic rejoins many stories and 
paves the way for you to cross hurdles and reach the destination. One should never forget his 
life lessons because this is what was inside you and now you should flourish and gain respect 
for your basic attributes.


The most common thing in comic books in Nigeria is that they focus on the common man and 
there fight to attain social justice which is a general recommendation of the world. The Western 
world is also inspired by African stories and takes a character or story from African conditions. 
Women and children are made part of it, society is incomplete without them. Former comics 
writers never left them. They always used to propagate the characters and try to put an 
impression on the minds of people.

African society shares some of its issues to another world like racism, womanhood, 
brotherhood. The comic should be well versed- the size, quotes, picturisation, scene order. It 
should be interesting to a major audience so that even the family can talk and discuss it. Africa 
is a part of the world but has its uniqueness in diversity, lifestyle. Zebra and giraffe are part of 
African ecology, Other comics depict them as their main character. Many nations after their 
independence are waiting for their economy to flourish.

Comics from history has kept people on the right track, it means as a childhood story that we 
might have read for fun changed the way we think. It persuades us to be more logical, to the 
world, hopeful but not a freak. Various circumstances that come across, we face them. A doer is 
a fighter, a fighter is a doer.
