Introduction

Volume 1

Afro Gurl is a cartoon series about a queer, masc-presenting “hero,” who exudes brilliance, intensity, and impulsiveness while carrying a deep sensitivity and empathy for others. Her journey is shaped by her close relationships, her deep desire for belonging, and a mysterious past tied to her origins, giving her unique abilities and an unyielding drive to fight for a better world.

Afro Gurl's story is set in a post-apocalyptic society grappling with the fallout of humanity's decisions, including environmental collapse, the consequences of powerful monopolies, and systemic oppression.

Afro Gurl is a story about the courage to pursue change and justice.

Afro Gurl and supporting characters have gone through countless iterations and stylistic explorations for many years. Afro Gurl, inspired by animated TV series and films of the early 60s through the 90s, was created with the vision of one day evolving into a full-fledged world and animated experience.

This series explores themes of grief, self-reflection, generational trauma, triumph, love, and justice through humor and emotional observations.

Coming eventually: new Afro Gurl comics and animated shorts, Afro Gurl zine series, an online shop, and more.
