About the series
In this modern French adaptation from Gallimard, Stéphane Melchior reimagines the classic 16th-century Chinese epic by Wu Cheng'en, Journey to the West, as a vibrant comic series. Running from 2020 to the present across three issues, it follows the mischievous Monkey King's legendary adventures with a fresh, visually dynamic approach. The series bridges Eastern literary tradition and contemporary bande dessinée, offering readers a lively entry point into a timeless tale of magic and pilgrimage.
