"Africa called. A hero answered." When young South African native Lionel Leonard's albino twin brother Leon, the light and balance in his life, is taken from him, a dark fury consumes Lionel as destiny and the dark continent had long been calling upon him to rid the city of Egoli of The Fox and his shadow crime syndicate.

Marvel cover artist Guile Sharp teamed up with South African veteran writer and producer, Alan Hayward to launch Dark Lion, a Graphic Novel, NFT and multimedia franchise centered around the above-mentioned, contemporary bone-breaking dark avenger.

Alan and Guile are utilizing the latest in Web3 tools and community-building platforms to revolutionize the way Superhero franchises are owned.

With the rise of the blockchain, decentralized ecosystems and finance, why should Hollywood studios own all the good stuff, when it is the fans that spend the money and sustains the ever-rebooting life of these multi-billion dollar IPs / franchises?

Imagine this was Day 1 of Batman, Superman or Spiderman... and you got offered a share for free. An NFT-based share linked to your Web3 wallet and for years to come the profit share of all the Dark Lion multimedia adventures gets dumped in there.

Dark Lion was first a successful novel, then grew on page to a fully developed 5-Part TV series. Dark Lion then launched as an IP and fractionalized ownership model to raving success and positive response at Comic Con Africa 2024.

Join the revolution in Superhero ownership.
