Where it all began! We are proud to present this facsimile edition of Palestine #1, originally published in early 1993—the first appearance of Sacco's timeless, award-winning work of comics journalism, based on his own travels in the Middle East. In this first chapter of one of the best-selling and most important graphic novels of all time, Sacco travels to Egypt and Jerusalem, hearing very different opinions of Palestine and Israel from the locals.
