Hundreds of thousands of young people are protesting in Europe and around the world against the bleak future imposed on them. “Bismillah, c’est les ténèbres” (Bismillah: it’s darkness) is one of the most popular slogans used by protesters in France.
Abu Calypse is a comic series meant to reflect our apocalyptic times. A young, smart girl, Calypse discusses the problems of our era with her father, Abu Calypse: human rights, war, environmental catastrophe, politics, genocide, forced migration, gender and more.
Calypse is us and at the same time she speaks to us: the conscience of a generation that is condemned to resist and survive.
The comic has been created by the UntoldMag collective together with artist Francesca Cogni.
