UAE Kitten

Look beyond what you see...

Khayal

mood: Confident
craving: Saks

One of my bros – a comic freak – walked in one day with a magazine he bought from a nearby gas station called Khayal. I saw it laying in the couch, & when I flipped through it, I was impressed that it was made & produced by locals here.. & specifically from Al Ain! =)

I always get this warm fuzzy feeling knowing that a local guy or girl is excelling in a field that is appealing to many, especially the youth – & this was one of them.. I was glad that the local talents are now using their artistic skills (& yes, there are many as I recall back in my uni days) in something like a magazine such as this one.. Inspired by our culture, fused in another (Japanese anime) & produced as good quality comics..

It was purposely in black & white so you would ‘concentrate on the content rather than taken away by their colors’.. Although the stories need a little more strengthening, I am sure it will get better.. The drawings are already impressive for a first issue..

Big round of applause to the artists & contributors of this magazine.. & to the best always!

Grab your copy from the nearest gas station, & own issue #0 because this magazine will go places.. =)

final whisper: I am happy & there is nothing you can do about it =)

  • Very impressive indeed,

    The most thing that I caught my attention about this also, is the amount of support that is being given to local talents these days …

    It started to sparkle :)
