About the series
The Walled City Trilogy is a three-part graphic novel series published by Gestalt from 2011 to 2015, adapting the real-life history of Hong Kong's infamous Kowloon Walled City into a gritty, atmospheric crime saga. Written and illustrated by an Australian creative team, the series uses stark black-and-white art to explore themes of survival, corruption, and community within the densely packed, lawless enclave. Its unflinching portrayal of a unique urban environment—a city within a city—gives it a distinct place in the landscape of documentary-style comics.
