Super-Hero Comics and Black Empowerment
Nellie Bailey and Glen Ford
28 May 2018
🖨️ Print Article

Prof Turtel Onlihas been producing and marketing Black super-hero comic books for more than four decades, through his Chicago-based Onli Studios. Onli says the genre utilizes “contemporary mythology” in the service of Black empowerment. One of his characters, Malcolm 10, “goes after street violence, the gangs, the corrupt Black drug dealers. He addresses Black-on-Black, internal problems,” said Onli.
