Comics - a world of fantasy

***************************

     Hong Kong comic books usually depict martial arts scenes or iconic characters, but thanks to the HK Comics Support Programme, which is sponsored by the Government, local comic book artist Linus Liu has created an award-winning graphic novel about his childhood memories. The scheme not only subsidises comic production, but also arranges for industry experts to tutor graphic novelists with the goal of creating a fantastical comic world.

     News.gov.hk spoke to Liu, the programme mentor and the event host to learn more about how the programme helps to raise the growth of the comic book industry.

     The story is available at www.news.gov.hk/eng/feature today (August 7) in text and video format.
