Saladin

In the single-issue series Saladin (2018, Daedalus), writer and artist Roberto Meli crafts a self-contained historical vignette centered on the legendary Muslim military leader. Published as a standalone comic, it offers a focused, respectful portrait of Saladin's character and the era of the Crusades, with Meli's detailed artwork grounding the narrative in a specific moment of his life. While brief, the issue stands as a concise entry point for readers interested in a comics treatment of medieval Islamic history.
