My Soul Mate - Paperback
by Wah Kee (Author)
Two novice manhua artists connect and collaborate across the boundaries of the material world in this semi-autobiographical story of creativity and storytelling against the odds.
Chung Chuen Ming is an experienced art assistant in the comics industry who spends his days working on perfecting the work of others. Inside his heart, he longs for artistic fulfillment and wants to create his own manhua. Determined to make his dreams a reality, he quits his day job to focus on his personal project. Through a strange turn of events, he meets fellow novice artist Cheung Shan, someone who could really help him achieve his dreams! There's just one small issue: Chung Chuen Ming just died and has been possessing Cheung Shan! Can a creative collaboration bloom between these two artists, even against the boundaries of life and death? Follow these two fearless artists as they follow their creative dreams in My Soul Mate.Wah Kee was first introduced to manga at the hair salon, where comic books were available for children to read while waiting. One of his favorite artists was Ryoichi Ikegami, an award-winning Japanese manga illustrator. After graduating from secondary school in the 90s, Wah Kee worked as a comic assistant at Hong Kong companies, where he was responsible for character art. In 2017, he made his artistic debut with a personal work, Makutsu. In 2021, he founded The Box Studio, a publishing company. "My creations mostly center on Hong Kong elements. And I like to create quirky manga and sometimes relaxing stories because [writing] the hilarious type is quite stressful," he says, adding that it was hard to make ends meet as a comic artist. His latest manga, My Soul Mate, is based on his personal experiences.
