Kobane Calling

Zerocalcare’s Kobane Calling (2018–present, H//O//F) is a single-issue comic that documents the artist’s firsthand experiences in the Syrian city of Kobane during the fight against ISIS. Written by Zerocalcare and Emma Bakkevik, and illustrated by Zerocalcare, this work blends reportage with the creator’s signature autobiographical style, offering a personal, ground-level perspective on the conflict and the Kurdish resistance. Published as a standalone volume, it stands as a vital, humanizing document of a pivotal moment in recent history.
