About the series
In this brief two-issue series from the French publisher Kantik, the world of the classic Chinese folktale "The Magic Paintbrush" is reimagined through a fresh, poetic lens. The story follows the young boy MaLiang, whose enchanted brush brings his paintings to life, as he navigates the wonders and dangers of his newfound power. Though short-lived, this 2010–2011 comic offers a visually striking and thoughtful take on a beloved story, notable for its blend of Eastern folklore with Western comic sensibilities.
