A revolutionary new collection of genre-bending futuristic comics from award-winning and visionary Muslim creators.

Imagine a panoply of futuristic worlds, all of them steeped in the Muslim values of peace, justice, and care; worlds where Muslims finally belong and thrive, and in doing so, create a better future for all people. And yet, even in these aspirational worlds, there is struggle. We struggle with love and with loss, and in doing so, we reveal what it means to be human, and the emotional bonds and fractures that unite us all.

This anthology is a glimpse into an array of possible futures, filled with magic and mystery, advanced science and ancient technologies; a portal to a multiverse of better worlds. Join us on the other side.

Bismillah.
