Theft of the Black Gods: The Superheroes ()

Visionary filmmaker Abassi Okoro (Uncloaked) returns with a mind-blowing look into ancient African and Orisha origins of many of the Marvel and DC comic book superheroes and exposes how European culture and religion for over a 12,000 year span has historically appropriated the black Gods of old.
