I became friends with Robert Trujillo during the Myspace era. He has been a contributor and a big supporter of what we do at GhettoManga. I have enjoyed the privilege of watching Rob build his illustrator game and become an accomplished children's book author and illustrator
I was proud to back this book on Kickstarter back in the day, and even more to see the book reach a wide audience. Rob is the prototype of a professional artist as activist. All his books are designed to make the cultures he embodies better. Whenever I see him accomplish something... I couldn't be prouder of someone I have never met in person!
Get your hands on a copy of Furqan's First Flat Top on Amazon or CLICK HERE to order direct from the artist.

Have great day!

He even writes and draws his own comics, like Dare: The Adventures of Darius Davidson, Spontaneous, and Manchild when he gets around to it. Because making comics is hard and stuff, he started GhettoManga as a blog in 2006 and as a print magazine in 2008.
