Maui: Legends of the Outcast Hard Cover by Robert Sullivan (Author) & Chris Slane

First edition 1996 Comic Graphic Novel

Published by Godwit Publishing, Auckland, NZ

Maui is thrown into the sea as a baby by his mother who believes him dead. Suckled by a jellyfish and raised by the great elder Tamanui-Ki-Te-Rangi, Maui returns to his mother and four brothers 13 years later, full of mischief and strange powers. Armed with the jawbone of his goddess grandmother, he catches the great fish which becomes the north island of New Zealand. Maui learns the secret of fire, trains the sun to move slowly across the sky and inadvertently brings death into the world.

Chris Slane brings this South Pacific myth cycle to life with art that combines wild, expressive line-work and delicate coloring. Paired with the spare and subtle text by Robert Sullivan, Maui: Legends of the Outcast is a powerful retelling
