An afrofuturistic graphic novel that's X-Men meets Attack on Titan from the creators at YouNeek Studios (Iyanu - Child of Wonder, Malika - Warrior Queen)!

The Asiri Volume 1 begins an epic science fantasy about an ancient, advanced West African civilization of space explorers that once colonized Mars and strove for galactic stability.

Enhanced by an inner power called "Inkra," the Asiri can manipulate technology in ways never seen. However, their golden age comes to a devastating halt after a mysterious enemy invades from deep space. Now, a once-thriving civilization is thrust into chaos as loyalty quickly becomes a liability.
