It follows the gentle, whimsical adventures of two friends, Atari and Forest, in a near-future city, blending a manga-influenced art style with a heartfelt, slice-of-life narrative. Published by Slave Labor Graphics, this volume is a key entry in Liew's acclaimed indie series.
In "Bicycle," three kids who’ve stolen bikes spin tales that leap into wildly different comic styles—ranging from a surreal fantasy ("Ingrown Nale") to a nostalgic Sunday strip and a pulpy superhero adventure ("Doctor Midnight"). Written and drawn entirely by Sonny Liew, the issue blends uninked pencils, stark black-and-white pages, and vibrant color segments, all unified by his distinctive hand. The cover by Sonny Liew captures the story’s playful, inventive spirit.
