Chad Solomon's Rabbit and Bear Paws
Posted: July 6, 2006 | News Bites Home

Something for fans of comics and native culture - introducing Rabbit and Bear Paws:

The Adventures of Rabbit and Bear Paws is set in 18th-Century colonized North America. We follow the story of two mischievous Ojibwa brothers as they play pranks and have amazing adventures - using a traditional Ojibwa medicine that transforms them into animals for a short time.

This fresh and funny comic strip for the young and the young at heart is created and drawn by Chad Solomon, with the guidance of community elders, in collaboration with writers Christopher Meyer and Julie Pickering. The first series of comic strips is based upon the teachings of the Seven Grandfathers (wisdom from the aboriginal community) and is rapidly gaining enthusiastic fans for its vibrant and entertaining images of native traditions and history.
