简介

美国当代非裔艺术家凯里·詹姆斯·马歇尔创作了一部极具开创性的漫画作品，以回应主流漫画中真实黑人角色与作者的缺失。这部漫画构建了一个另类现实世界，主角Rythm Mastr及其年轻伙伴Farell是拥有约鲁巴神话中七位神祇力量的超级英雄，他们用黑人白话英语讨论历史、哲学与政治，将科幻与非洲未来主义融为一体。本书是迄今为止对这一角色及其演变历程最全面的回顾——它最初以日报连载形式问世，后作为卡内基国际展的装置作品呈现，在过去二十年间以灯箱、绘画、版画和素描等多种形式出现。

The iconic comic created by contemporary African American artist Kerry James Marshall. Marshall, widely considered one of America's greatest living painters and inspired chronicler of the African American experience, has sought to diversify the art historical canon. In the late 1990s, he began working on a series of comics in response to the absence of authentic black characters and authors in the mainstream. Marshall's comic offers an alternative reality focused on the main character, Rythm Mastr, and his young protégé, Farell, superheroes whose powers derive from the seven gods of the Yoruba pantheon. Marshall's characters debate history, philosophy, and politics in vernacular black English using the graphic novel medium to create an empowering, utopian blend of science fiction and Afrofuturism. Initially serialized in a daily newspaper and presented as a Carnegie International installation, it has appeared in various incarnations over the past two decades, including light boxes, paintings, graphic prints, and drawings. This volume is the most comprehensive look at the character, its genesis, and its evolution.
