Dark Horse Comics and YouNeek Studios debuted the graphic novel series Iyanu: Child of Wonder, which has since been transformed into an animated show on Cartoon Network and Max. Now, Dark Horse and YouNeek Studios have assembled Volume 1 in a beautiful Library Edition, and you can preview the captivating cover image below before it goes on sale at bookstores and comic shops this August.
Iyanu: Child of Wonder is a creation penned and conceived by Roye Okupe. Volume 1 showcases artwork and cover designs by Godwin Akpan, while Volume 2 showcases art by Chima Kalu and lettering by Spoof Animation. This captivating series has amassed numerous accolades and is poised to make its animation debut on Max and Cartoon Network, set to air on April 5th.
The narrative unfolds around a teen orphan named Iyanu, who uncovers extraordinary powers said only in legends. These powers are crucial for preventing the world’s demise and welcoming a new era of miracles. To accomplish this daunting task, she will rely on these powers and strategic companions. The sinister forces aiming to annihilate humanity must be confronted, as described officially below.
Iyanu: Child of Miracles”: Meet Iyanu, a teenage orphan with no memories of her past, who inexplicably finds herself endowed with powers that match the legendary deities from the folklore of her community. These powers are crucial to reinstating a time of marvels as she embarks on an adventure to prevent a world teetering on the edge of collapse. The Corrupt – twisted creatures of nature and divine beings – aim to wipe out mankind unless Iyanu can thwart them. This is a classic quest filled with wonder, inspired by the rich culture and myths of Yoruba, brought to life by some of Nigeria’s finest comic creators!
