Leman

Sometimes modest ideas can be deceptively sophisticated. Özge Samancı's graphic memoir, "Dare to Disappoint: Growing up in Turkey" is an ostensibly simple graphic memoir about growing up in a lower-middle class family in İzmir, her life at boarding school, and her later time studying maths at Istanbul's prestigious Bosphorus University. 

The prominent Turkish satirical cartoon magazine Leman released a special issue in honor of Charlie Hebdo on Jan. 12, featuring on its cover a picture of killed cartoonist Wolinski drawing while wearing a taqiyah [Islamic skullcap] at Istanbul?s famed Eyüp Sultan Mosque.
