Dodola from 'Habibi' by Craig Thompson -iPad sketch

            Pantheon Books runs a regular competition for fans of its graphic novels called 'Pantheon Panels'. The theme and execution vary each time. This time it was to draw a character from one of your favorite Pantheon graphic novels, and I chose, Craig Thompson's HABIBI.
HABIBI is a gorgeous book, in design, in art, in story. What Thompson achieves with this book-- a story about two slaves & their journey to adulthood and freedom-- is nothing short of brilliance. The reader experiences, not just a story of two protagonists, but a mind-opening exploration of Islamic culture's many contradictions-- beautiful (poetry, calligraphy, science, architecture, faith) and the terrifying (slavery, war, subjugation of women & other races). In essence, like all human cultures and religions.
