Rolling Blackouts: Dispatches from Turkey, Syria, and Iraq

Sarah Glidden’s Rolling Blackouts: Dispatches from Turkey, Syria, and Iraq is a single-issue graphic reportage from Drawn & Quarterly, capturing the author’s journey through the Middle East with a small team of journalists and veterans. Glidden, both writer and artist, documents the human stories behind the headlines, exploring the complexities of war, displacement, and the act of reporting itself. This work stands as a quietly powerful testament to the value of on-the-ground comics journalism.
