Bosch Fawstin (born July 31, 1970)[1][2] is an American cartoonist and anti-Islam[3] activist who is known for drawing the Islamic prophet Muhammad.
[7] He has also cited the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy as a strong influence of his views in "defense of free speech".
[8] He began taking night classes at the School of Visual Arts New York City when he was 25 in order to pursue a career of making comic books.
Fawstin stated that he had received death threats for his cartoons before then, but denied reports in The Wall Street Journal that he went into hiding following the attack.
The plot "revolves around twin brothers who react to 9/11 in opposite ways: One dives deeper into his Islamic roots; the other, a Muslim apostate, creates 'an ex-Muslim counter-jihad superhero comic book.'
[27] In 2020, he illustrated a Danish book about the Quran titled De skyggefulde haver by Kåre Bluitgen, as it was no longer possible to find any cartoonist willing to draw Muhammad in Denmark.
