DOUALA, CAMEROON - EQS Newswire - 30 April 2024 - Zebra Comics PLC, a leader in African comic book publishing, announces a collaboration with DC, part of Warner Bros. Discovery and one of the world's largest publishers of comics and graphic novels, to co-create and develop a story for DC's upcoming hardcover anthology Joker: The World.

Joker: The World is an anthology that brings together an international consortium of creators and publishers to explore diverse interpretations of the iconic DC Super-Villain.

Among the esteemed contributors to this anthology, Zebra Comics PLC has enlisted the team of writer Dr. Ejob Gaius and artist Bertrand Mbozo'o Zeh to create a unique story titled "Black Therapy."

"We are immensely proud to pioneer this endeavor, introducing a new and original version of The Joker to a worldwide audience, while showcasing the unparalleled talent and creativity of African storytellers."

"Black Therapy" promises to deliver a gripping narrative that explores The Joker's sinister machinations within the unique context of Cameroon, offering readers an exhilarating new perspective on the iconic character.

Joker:TheWorld is slated for release on the Zebra Comics app and website on September 17, 2024, and at participating comic book shops, booksellers, and mass-market retailers/e-tailers in the United States, Spain, Germany, Italy, Brazil, Mexico, the Czech Republic, Turkey, Japan, Korea, Cameroon, Poland, and Argentina.
