Habibi, a graphic novel

Not a post on stained glass, though I think it will be interesting to see if this will reach the SG world, in terms of its graphics. I've long thought that contemporary comics artists could end up having a serious influence on contemporary stained glass.
This book's official release is tomorrow and it's called Habibi, by Craig Thompson. I've been following the progress of this book for at least 3 years, through Thompson's blog - the Doot Doot Garden. His drawing skill is pretty stunning.

I can't speak for the story (yet), but the graphics look amazing.
