About Us
Conflict comics is a group of passionate artists and storytellers that are headed towards sharing real stories from the war fronts, war torn civilians and their deepest staggering memories.
A graphic novel from Afghanistan that casts a spotlight on a war which resulted in the death of 46,319 civilians, cost trillions $$$ of tax payers money, and saw the Taliban return to power months after international forces withdrew.
Conflict Comics are on a mission to tell Real War Stories. Through accurate, powerful visual images, and compelling narrative, readers gain an understanding of the reality of modern warfare.
A non-profit organisation, we are dedicated to providing an income for Artists in conflict zones.
The novel is a collaboration between British and Afghan artists; beautiful illustrations, meticulous research, and expert political analysis, give readers a front row seat to an inaccessible war.
The debut project of Conflict Comics, a collective dedicated to telling real war stories.
