Prince Lao

Prince Lao is a compact four-issue series from Le Lombard, published between 2006 and 2009, that reimagines the legendary Monkey King myth through a modern, philosophical lens. The series is best known for the distinctive, expressive artwork of its primary artist, whose detailed linework and vibrant colors bring a fantastical, ancient China to life. Though brief, the series stands out for its thoughtful exploration of identity and rebellion, delivering a complete, self-contained narrative that feels both timeless and fresh.
