SUNDIATA, A Legend of Africa
Will EISNER
In this tale from the land of Mali, the ruler Sumanguru cannot satisfy his ambition enough. When he encounters the Gray Rock of Evil, his powers are multiplied manifold. Now able to manipulate the elements, he goes on a rampage of conquests. However, the rock is devious and prepares an enemy for him, one he knows Sumanguru will pay no heed to: a crippled child.
