Cairo

This graphic novel by G. Willow Wilson and M.K. Perker makes excellent use of a rich Middle Eastern folklore tradition. Characters mix it up with a Djinn, travel to the UnderNile (a spirit-world river beneath the Nile and flowing the opposite direction). In this environment, the book adds in politics and social commentary. It's a great book from artists from whom I hope we see more.
