In a joint venture, the Samandal Comics Association and the Arab Image Foundation (AIF) will produce a publication that will include works by local and regional artists invited to create comics based on photographs from the AIF archive and collection. Artists may redraw photographs and incorporate them into comic strips, or create photo-romances and collages or even find inspiration to invent stories based on single images and ultimately present them in a new and innovative way. The original drawings that are included in the publication will be exhibited with the book launch
