LIANHUANHUA, A POCKET GRAPHIC NOVEL !

With their single illustration per page, and their notebook-sized dimensions, Pocket Patayos have a unique appeal to fans of the 9th art. In fact, they have their roots in a tradition of graphic novels beloved by over a billion readers. This was in China, from the 1950s to the 1990s. These books are called “lianhuanhua” (literally “linked images”) and were once the main source of entertainment for an entire population. Seeking to reveal the extraordinary that lies within the seemingly ordinary, our authors give free rein to their imagination in a series of 92 boxes.

In their search for the extraordinary in the ordinary, our authors go wild in 92 boxes.
