About the series
Kabul Disco is a two-issue series from Humanoids, launched in 2018, that offers a gritty, slice-of-life look at modern Afghanistan through the eyes of a young man navigating the clash between tradition and the Western-influenced nightlife of Kabul. Written and illustrated by Nicolas Wauters, the book stands out for its raw, documentary-like storytelling and its unflinching portrayal of a rarely seen urban subculture. It matters as a bold, intimate comic that challenges preconceptions about life in a war-torn country, focusing on the personal rather than the political.
