Monkey King Description

For a limited time to celebrate the launch of 60% ($ 9.99 -> $ 3.99) discounts.Monkey King is a twenty-volume comics series based on the legendary Chinese novel (The Journey to the West). It is a magisterial work that took seventy people over six years to complete.The Journey to the West is at once a comedy, a drama, a satire, a meditation on faith and discipline, and a fantastical dramatization of China’s history. Begun during the eleventh century Song Dynasty, Journey is set against the backdrop of the seventh-century Tang Dynasty, and tells the story of a priest named San Zang, and his trio of disciples: the monkey king Sun Wu Kong, the gluttonous pig Zhu Bajie, and the quiet but noble sea monster Sha Wu Jing. Because the only known author of Journey to the West, Wu Cheng’en, died in 1582, the story is considered the result of collective creation spanning five hundred years. The events of Journey to the West, which include epic battles and threatened palaces and imperiled kings, could resonate with readers during almost any age, but the story focuses on portraying a peaceful society where deviance is ultimately trumped by enlightenment, violence defeated by benevolence. That makes The Journey to the West so beloved today.The author, Mr. Wei Tong Chen, is a highly acclaimed and beloved Chinese artist and an influential leader in the “New Chinese Cartoon” trend. His company, Creator World in Tianjin, is the largest comics studio in China. In 2005, he undertook the monumental effort of transforming four classic Chinese novels into serialized comic form. After six years of great and enthusiastic work, he completed his dream, which now consists of 12,800 pages of beautiful drawings and epic storytelling. Monkey King is one of the four novels.Monkey King is a new landmark of comic artistry in China, and is a bold and exhilarating treatment of one of the definitive works of Chinese literature.
