Biographies are about great human beings, comic books are about heroes. And this is exactly what Nelson Mandela: the Authorised Comic is about – a hero.

You know that you are really famous the day that you discover that you have become a comic character! Nelson Mandela

Fugitive. President. The hero of a nation
Nelson Mandela was called a terrorist, forced into hiding, captured, threatened with the death penalty and eventually thrown into jail for twenty-seven years, but nothing could stop him from fighting to liberate his country from the evil of apartheid.

A hero in the struggle against a terrible regime, he never gave up. Even when he was a prisoner, he worked secretly with his comrades to undermine the oppressive apartheid government.

This is the exciting true story of a young herd boy who was to grow up to become a lawyer, a freedom fighter, South Africa’s first democratically elected president and the beloved grandfather of a nation. It is told here in words and pictures for the young and the young at heart: a story to read with enjoyment and remember with pride.
