Bosch Fawstin is an American cartoonist[1] and anti-Islam activist. He was born into a Muslim family from Albania and raised in the faith before leaving it in his teens, becoming an atheist. His work is about salafism, wahabism, and the renouncing of faith.
His first graphic novel, Table for One, was nominated for a Russ Manning Most Promising Newcomer award in 2004[2] and an Eisner award - Talent Deserving of Wider Recognition in 2005.[3] He is currently producing The Infidel, featuring Pigman, a self-described "counter-jihad superhero".[4] In 2015, he won a controversial contest advertised as the "First Annual Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest" which saw the Curtis Culwell Center attack take place.[5]
