Recently I have been hearing about a Muslim superhero comic book series called The 99. Its about a group of people who receive or stumble across gems which give them superhuman powers that also coincide with the 99 attributes of Allah (swt).
I haven't read the copy yet but I'm quite excited about the idea of a comic book influenced by Arab-Islamic culture. Although, the idea of humans with attributes of Allah (swt) strikes me as border-line shirkh. Yes, it is true there are some attributes of Allah which humans can encompass to a degree, but the personification as superpowers does not still well with me.
Any way they have a free copy available for download on their website The 99.
