Luz Charlie Hebdo

Luz Charlie Hebdo, The main Charlie Hebdo visual artist to survive the slaughter of the magazine's staff is leaving the distribution, he says.

Renald Luzier was running late on the January day when two shooters burst into the mocking magazine's workplaces and killed the other five visual artists who worked for Charlie Hebdo.

Luzier then drew the French mocking magazine's first title page picture after the dangerous Islamist fear assault, demonstrating the Prophet Mohammed sobbing and saying "All is forgotten."

The cartoon prophet held a sign saying "Je suis Charlie," the trademark of the individuals who defended the magazine after the killings.

Luzier, who draws under the nom de plume Luz, said in a meeting with French daily paper Liberation that keeping on living up to expectations at Charlie Hebdo had turn out to be "a lot to bear."There was scarcely anybody departed to draw," he said in the meeting distributed on the daily paper's site late Monday. "I discovered myself doing three front pages out of four."

At the point when the first issue after the killings turned out, Luzier said he felt a feeling of "purification" in the wake of drawing the toon. At the same time, a month ago, he said he would no more draw the prophet, clarifying that he "became weary of him."

Charlie Hebdo had a background marked by portraying and satirizing Mohammed - forbidden to some Muslims - and the shooters who completed the assault on the magazine were thought to be inspired by those parodies.Luzier, 43, advised Liberation that the choice to leave was "exceptionally individual" and that he needed "to reconstruct myself, to recapture control of my life."

"Completing every version is torment on the grounds that the others are no more. Spending restless evenings summoning the dead, pondering what Charb, Cabu, Honore, (and) Tignous would have done is depleting," he said, alluding to some of his killed associates.
