Deena Mohamed is an Egyptian comics artist, writer and designer. Her graphic novel trilogy Shubeik Lubeik is an urban fantasy about a world where wishes are for sale. She originally self-published the first part at the Cairo Comix Festival, where it was awarded Best Graphic Novel and the Grand Prize of the Cairo Comix Festival (2017). After that, the English translation for all three parts of Shubeik Lubeik was acquired by Pantheon Books for North America and Granta for the UK, for publication as a single collected volume in Jan 2023. The Arabic trilogy was published as three separate graphic novels in Egypt by Dar El Mahrousa.
