Adam interviews Jiba Anderson, writer of the Bata’a chapter in Forbidden and Forgotten Orders. Jiba discusses how he reimagined the Bata’a craft, blending African and diasporic spirituality, music, and coded communication. He emphasizes authenticity, research, and the Bata’a’s global, secretive nature. Jiba also shares his broader work in comics, including The Horseman and upcoming projects.
