In the past few years, we began to realize that there were no positive Islamic characters in the world of mainstream entertainment. Be it movies, TV, books or comics. Especially after 9/11, Muslims were being portrayed in a negative way by the mainstream media. That’s when we had a strong urge to use our artistic skills and produce something inspirational for the Muslim youth.
We used to draw comics even as kids, and grew up reading Marvel and DC comics. Our Artistic interests withered away with time as personal life took priority. Until now! Hollywood pushed us to rediscover our passion for art and story telling. We wanted to tell our side of the story. We wanted to have our own Superhero, a hero that shares common universal values of Islam; to standup for Truth, Justice and Freedom!
We knew that there were many like us who wanted an alternative to the mainstream narrative. The release of the 1st issue of BURAAQ in Jan 2011 was followed by an overwhelmingly positive response from across the globe. People were filling up our fan page with well wishes and prayers. That continues today, Alhamdulillah. This was our defining moment. A reason to push forward. People telling us how long they had waited for something like this to come along.
We are taking BURAAQ to the next level and aiming to produce a high quality 3D animated series for the global audience.
OUR MISSION:
To reclaim the mainstream narrative on Islam, and to tell our own story in the form of high-quality 3D animation and comic books. Our ultimate goal is to see BURAAQ on the big screen, In sha Allah!
OUR THEMES AND MESSAGES:
Our central theme always revolves around Islamic universal values and philosophy that is shared across all major religions. This of course is packaged with the elements of mystery, action, and adventure.We want readers to have fun and at the same time be reminded of our purpose in this life, namely succeeding in the Hereafter. We like to stay away from ambiguity and convey a clear, positive and inspirational message.
