Lesego Mailula is the co-creator of Majesty, an ambitious African epic that blends monarchy, 

tribalism, spirituality, and futuristic fantasy. Launching first as a comic book and evolving 

into an animated series and gaming franchise, Majesty is positioned to become a cultural 

landmark for African storytelling.

Drawing from both the richness of modern South African life and the depth of pre-colonial 

African monarchies, my creative mission is to showcase African identity in genres that have 

often overlooked the continent—like high fantasy, sci-fi, and supernatural horror. My work 

goes beyond entertainment: it is an intentional act of rewriting the global narrative, proving 

that African stories are not only compelling, but commercially powerful.

My experience spans creative writing, brand strategy, and building multi-platform 

campaigns. I has led initiatives that merge pop culture with community, such as partnering 

with local brands for game nights and tournaments, and using social satire to address 

current affairs through the lens of Majesty’s characters on platforms like TikTok.

At the heart of it all, I is driven by a simple idea: African kids deserve to see themselves as 

heroes, kings, warriors, and legends. Through Majesty and future projects, I hope to inspire 

a generation of African creators to dream beyond borders—and to turn those dreams into 

globally recognized brands.
