Shennawy is the alma mater of the Egyptian magazine Tok-tok, whose first issue saw the light with the start of the Egyptian revolution in 2011. Unlike the Lebanese Samandal, Tok-tok has a clear local character strongly marked by the use of the Egyptian dialect.
Tok-tok has been able to seek European funding not only for the magazine but also to publish a publication The Ninth Art of information on Arab comics. Shennawy is one of the Arab authors with the most international presence, traveling regularly to festivals and conferences.
