Bulgilhan Press announced two graphic novel titles to be published on 9/16/24: The King’s Warrior by Huahua Zhu and A Night to Ride the Day by Breeze Hu.
The King’s Warrior by Huahua Zhu is a brooding sword and sorcery comic where monsters roam the lands. A mighty Warrior in the service of a great King is charged with vanquishing the kingdom’s final threat, a powerful and evil alchemist. She promised that she would finally be freed alongside her brother once the deed was done, that her blade would not stop, and that the blood of beasts would run.
The King’s Warrior is a melancholy dark fantasy in the tradition of stories like Berserk by Kentaro Miura and the Dark Souls or Elden Ring video games.
A Night to Ride the Day by Breeze Hu is about a tired salesman and a grieving girl who meet by chance in a desert, each of them lost and alone in their waking dreams. Fate– or something like it – brings them together to navigate the maze-like city of Lynbo and unravel the truth of the past that’s haunting them. It is a magnificently kaleidoscopic comic that invites readers to join in on a feverish late-night journey to find the answer to the question, “Why continue?”
A Night Ride to the Day is a surrealist drama about coming to terms with one’s life and the world around them. It is reminiscent of stories like Drive My Car by Ryusuke Hamaguchi and Takamasa Oe as well as works by Satoshi Kon.
