Comic in progress

786,

Remember the project mentioned a couple of times a month or so before? ( in "Reading List Summer '11" and "Current Project")
Still in progress.
But now we're doing the adaptation of this scholar's work in modern times.



For Some1, Porcellino was a huge inspiration. But for this it's Manu Larcenet. Also one of my favorites.
His series "Le combat ordinaire" is always by my side. Like a reference.

Current Project

786,

A few panels of the project I'm currently working on.
I'm done with the first part which is a "short graphic non-fiction" in other words a bio in comics


Can you guess who the scholar is?
Hint: We already mentioned him in this blog... somehow ;)

Prize: I'll send the WHOLE pdf comic to the FIRST one who answers correctly!
