Enter the Leti Arts “Create an African Superhero” Competition!
One of the best things about being a comics and gaming company is that we get to bring our wildest imaginations to life. Now it’s your turn!
HOW IT WORKS
Send us a description of the most incredible superhero (or supervillain!) you can think of. We’ll turn the best three descriptions into gorgeous colour illustrations of your creation!
CLICK HERE TO ENTER THE LETI ARTS “CREATE AN AFRICAN SUPERHERO” COMPETITION!
Does your character absorb power from the sun to shoot fire out of his hands? Does she control machines with the help of an ancient staff? Maybe he’s a stranded cyborg from a future where the greatest space-faring civilizations explore the universe in spaceships shaped like pyramids. The more imaginative, the better!
