Zahra's Paradise is a new comic being offered online by First Second. From what we've seen, it promises to be an absorbing true story and I like the art. It's being released simultaneously in English, Farsi, Arabic, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutchs—seven languages in all. Eight, if you count the language of comics.
Zahra's release follows closely on the heels of Robot Comics' Valentine, released in a whopping twelve languages simultaneously. If this is a trend, I like it.
