Rutu Modan's Jamilti - Coda

Images:
the evolution of Rutu Modan’s drawing style:
1. How to Make a Good Script Great, 1996: Kitaj inspired (?) pop expressionism with a naive twist;
2. Bygone, 2000: awkward punk or naiveté accepted?;
3. 2008: stiff caricatural clear line.
Notice how the layout in # 2 (a conventional grid, in Peteers' classification, with two bigger panels generated by fusion) draws a phallus in accordance with the page's theme.
