Episode description

Following the success of his two volumes of The Mighty Assyrians, Tony Shalalo returns with the third instalment in the series, titled The Betrayal. Shalalo says that this edition focuses on the tragic assassination of Assyrian Patriarch Mar Benyamin Shimoun and dozens of his bodyguards by the Kurdish tribal leader Simko on 3 March, 1918. Through powerful storytelling and vivid illustrations, he and his team bring to life one of the darkest chapters in Assyrian history, capturing its historical gravity with both artistic depth and factual detail.
