Ibikusb Prize of Cartoon Bookshop in 1999Geneva Cartoon Prize in 1999 - Best Prize in Angouleme International Cartoon Festival in 2000b"In July 1993, I went to the flea market and found Tolstoy The book, Woodcut IllustrationsI found the 1926 edition "Ibikus" by chance. Windfall, only 3 francs!I come home, I notice this mistake. It is not Tolstoy of "war and peace". Its not Lev, Alexei!Shit, Ill read it when I have nothing else to read and throw it away.Three months pass. At 8 oclock in the evening, I could not read anymoreI pick up "ibikus" which I threw away. Not until dawn.Read it all ... ... Oh my gosh! I am determined to adapt it to a cartoon soon. I freely adapted the story. But the spirit of the author tried to respect. I do not care about it. He was a Stalinist, and he was already dead! Anyway, readers could compare this comic to a novel. "- Pascal Rabata
