Since 2005, Aladdin has created and written the comic character Sa'adan-The Naughty Seagull in Saudi magazine Basim. It was a life-long dream for Aladdin, and along with the artist Muhammad Nabil (who will be replaced in 2014 with Aladdin's best friend, the great artist Hatem Fathy Ali), he did realize it. Sa'adan enjoys remarkable popularity in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states, and Aladdin hopes that through this Free Zone (as he called Sa'adan's episodes) he can create some good fun for the Gulf kids, away of the conservative old thinking ways of the old generation.
