The 99 (Arabic: الـ 99 al 99‎), also written as The Ninety-Nine (Arabic: التسعة وتسعون al-tisa'a wa tisaun‎), is a comic book published by Teshkeel Comics, featuring a team of superheroes themed around concepts from Islam and its culture, specifically the ninety-nine aspects of God.The series is a creation of Dr. Naif Al-Mutawa, founder and C.E.O. of Teshkeel Media Group. The creative team for The 99 is composed of comic book industry veterans such as Fabian Nicieza, Stuart Moore, June Brigman, Dan Panosian, John McCrea, Ron Wagner, Sean Parsons and Monica Kubina – all of whom have worked at both Marvel and DC Comics.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Although the series is based on Islamic concepts, it is promoted as appealing to universal virtues, and the religion of each character is not made explicit.A free introductory comic is available here: http://www.the99.org/include/contn/X1ZkxhXHSPO.pdf

Gentle Giant: Nawaf Al-Bilali, aka Jabbar the Powerful. Despite being a massive, nearly-invulnerable powerhouse with super strength, he's one of the kindest members of the team (just like Colossus). Which is a nice change, given that most people look at people from Saudi Arabia as jerks full of themselves.

Bad Powers, Good People: John Weller, aka "Darr The Afflicter", who's capable of causing other people pain. At least he can un-afflict as well. Wakila the Guardian is a sweet little girl who has the ability to force someone to feel all the pain that they've caused to someone else.
