Details
The Congo 50 comic is the work of eight Congolese cartoonists. To mark 50 years of independence from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, they united their talent to tell the story of this half century. They do this on the basis of a powerful story, consisting of 8 parts, and drawn in different styles that were each time adapted to the theme. The connecting thread is the twins Dipanda and Lipanda, a boy and a girl baptized in Kinshasa on June 30, 1960, the day of Congo's independence.
