Monarchs

From 2023 onward, Black Sands Entertainment's Monarchs reimagines the African diaspora through a sprawling, four-issue saga of royal lineage and supernatural power. The series, driven by the creative vision of Manuel Godoy and Ashley A. Woods, centers on a young prince who must navigate ancient prophecies and modern-day conflict to claim his birthright. Its significance lies in blending Afrofuturist themes with classic superhero storytelling, offering a fresh, culturally grounded perspective in the indie comics landscape.
