A little over a week ago a library in Tripoli was burned because … well… to be honest I shouldn’t continue that sentence. There should be NO reason to burn down a library! Shame on those who have done this stupid act.
There’s now a fund raising project that is trying to come up with $35,000 to help restore the library. The project will end by the end of Jan. You can find some more info about the project here.
P.S I’m so freakin proud of today’s comic, artistically I mean!
.
Looks like twilight
if i could remember something of this movie…
today’s comic is perfect: a message in a great artistic way … in a 100% comic way … u made my Monday
Thank you! And I didn’t realize it looked like Twilight until you mentioned it hehe!
Love the new art !
From now on we have a new standard, all the comics have to be this good or.. you’re fired.
Hah that’s going to be tough! It took me an additional 2 hours to draw this comic. My Sunday was shot!

Nice work on the forest! It’s certainly far better looking than the typical “conspiracy theory corner” found in bookstores here (yes Malaysia has these. No idea why the world still takes us seriously).
Thanks for your comment! I’m interested to know what you mean by the conspiracy theories in your country?
A good deal of bookstores here have a corner dedicated to books on “the secret political agenda of *insert sect/religious/racial group here*” or some purported secret/highly illegal action taken by some political figure. It’s unfortunately extremely easy to discern who the audience is for these books, and nowadays many say that said audience is fighting just about everything in existence for not being just like them…
It was a whole new level of “shame” – sadly it seems it will never end

The forest (it is a forest, no?
) is so neat Sareen, well-done, great work indeed.
Thank you very much Haitham!
Good work.
And great message. We’re losing everything that was once valuable to something that will have no value even in the near future.
Bravo Sareen
Thank you Hisham! I’m just happy that there is a project that’s funding the restoration of the library.
That must be why I’m safe in America from cultural death. What with so little of it.
Hehe aww…well you guys certainly do export your culture really well! Cheers!

Beautiful comic, Sareen! Now if only they set fire to reality television instead of those books…
Thank you so much Justin! And extremely good point!
Eroding them from within!
Well talking in English can destroy our culture too
but…but… Kardashians? Guys watch that?!?!? (Not trying to be sexist or anything!)
