Objects in the Mirror is a poetic tale that explores familial trauma, loss, and identity. Described as “a stained glass portrait reflecting trauma, longing, and belonging.”
This one-shot is told in two parts and is written as a series of poems accompanied by abstract traditional art that mixes illustration and collage.
"This comic is visual poetry at its absolute finest. A stained glass portrait reflecting trauma, longing, and belonging. You will be mesmerized. You will be amazed. And boy, your heart will ache. Everyone should take a look at this comic - it's MASTERFUL"
- Fell Hound, Ringo Nominated creator of Commander Rao
“A masterful expression of nuanced emotion, coupled with a visual complexity that will (if you're like me) have you revisiting pages in your mind for days."
- Richard Fairgray, creator of Shed and Haunted Hill
“I am literally f***ing speechless by this magnificent, unrelenting, and ferociously resolute story”
- Lauren, host of Friendly NBHD Show
"Objects in the Mirror is comics at its finest. It takes full advantage of what the medium has to offer for storytelling. The poetic language and haunting imagery dance between perfectly complimenting and juxtaposing each other throughout. It is impossible to not relate to this book. An absolute masterclass in losing yourself to only find a better self on the other side."
- Justin Richards, writer of Finger Guns, Everything is Different Now
"It's poetry. This is poetry. And when I say that I don't mean this is a comic book just containing a poem, I mean that the harmonious interaction between Anas Abdulhak's writing and Anton Mozhegov's and Mattia Monoco's art creates a poem in the form of a comic book. I've never read anything quite like this and I'm greatly anticipating the creators' next works."
- Leah Williams writer of X-Factor, Trial of Magneto, speaking on Eleutheromania
Written by Anas Abdulhak, a writer and artist from Damascus, Syria with a passion for poetry and sequential art. Anas released their debut comic book “Eleutheromania” earlier this year and has been hard at work since working on the follow-up.
Art by Gasp (Gaspare Orrico), a sequential artist from Italy, Gasp is known for his unique style reminiscent of 80s pulp comics. Gasp recently released his graphic novel Chi Non Muore to much critical acclaim.
Lettering by Novella Locritani, a letterer and illustrator from France. Novella brought her unique lettering style to this project to really pay homage to classic Vertigo books that we all grew up on and fell in love with.

The comic is entirely finished. Once the campaign ends and the funds are transferred and backer information is delivered I will be sending all the information to ComixWellSpring for printing and shipping. They will be responsible for printing and fulfillment.
Due to the paper shortage in the US right now. There might be some delays in printing and shipping. But given that the book is ready to print any day now. I think we can say that there are minimal risks when it comes to fulfilling the promises of this campaign. Printing and shipping will be handled by ComixWellSpring and the process will begin as soon as the campaign ends!
Yes! We encourage you to get more than 1 item! That could be multiple copies of the same reward, or you can mix and match rewards! There is no limit, unless otherwise stated in the reward description.
Our campaigns are for a worldwide audience unless stated otherwise in the campaign. All international orders are sold with the terms DAP (Delivered At Place). You are responsible for any duties and taxes required for the shipment's entry into your country. Our carriers may require you to pay taxes and fees related to importation and customs brokerage of your shipment -- but if your item is really low in value, it may fall under the customs de minimis of most countries. For more information, please contact USPS
Zoop does not store or keep your credit card info. Stripe simply holds the credit card info until the end of a successful campaign and then charges it. It is strictly for this one time use and won't charge it ever again.
You can either access the transaction through your account and click the cancel button, or contact us at hello@wearezoop.com and we'll cancel it for you and send back a confirmation email.
Cancellations of rewards or add-ons of $500 or more must be made before there are 72 hours left in the campaign. The reason for this is it can have a negative effect on the tally of the campaign. If it is a limited reward or add-on, there may not be sufficient time for someone else to purchase it, leaving the campaign possibly not funded. We ask for your courtesy of the people running the campaign when making these decisions.
Please use the notes section in the last checkout step or you could e-mail us at hello@wearezoop.com with that info during the campaign if you'd like to get it out of the way. Otherwise, we'll be reaching out to all supporters of rewards that require feedback shortly after the campaign is over.
If you want to make changes, you should first cancel your original order and then start over with a new one. If you don't do that and simply process an additional order, the way our system is currently set up you may end up being overcharged for shipping -- which we could remedy for you, but it just takes that extra step of catching it and crediting you back the extra shipping, so please try the prior way first.
Rewards are the priority items that the creators have chosen for the campaign. Add-Ons are meant to be secondary items that are 'unlocked' after you buy something from the Reward level. There are no restrictions on buying Rewards, but you can only buy Add-Ons if you've bought a Reward. Zoop sets this up under the direction of the creators. Some may choose to only have Rewards, some may choose an even balance of Rewards and Add-Ons, and others may choose to only have one or two Rewards with the rest of the items being Add-Ons.
Since we have an a la carte rewards system, shipping rates will vary from supporter to supporter. We use a weight-based calculation system in your checkout cart, though, so, after you enter your country, you'll be able to see it calculated in real time with each item you add.
No - this is it! We're essentially your in-campaign pledge manager. If you are interested in supporting these creators, this is the time to do it! And it's the exact reason we allow you to purchase as many rewards as you want during the campaign!
