Playing Together for a Better Tomorrow Comic Books

"Playing Together for a Better Tomorrow" is a co-funded project by the European Union to empower war refugees and promote social inclusion through sports and storytelling. We created six unique comic books, each designed for digital and print formats. Inspired by the iconic styles of 90s Marvel and DC, Manga, 70s American comics, and modern minimalism, these comics depict powerful stories of resilience, hope, and integration. Utilizing AI graphics, we aimed to capture the essence of classic and contemporary comic art.
