Short Review: I read an Arc of this without color. So that may have impacted my reading negatively. I have read a lot about the Syrian refugee crisis. I think non-fiction graphic novels can be an important source of understanding about difficult issues. But The Unwanted is a pretty basic introduction with no real narrative thread. The Syrian civil war is a humanitarian crisis. One that has been handled badly by the world and which has not really be helped by outside governments. The basic facts are here, the art is good, but there wasn't much that was added by the format.
