Lulu’s Flight

Comics / Graphic Novels
Written By Yu-Ching Chiu
“An accomplished piece of silent storytelling that mixes gentle humour with carefully measured panel-to-panel pacing, and an undeniably endearing protagonist. ”
— Andy Oliver, Editor-in-chief from Broken Frontier

This is a wordless comic created during the Covid-19 pandemic. I was alone in the UK when Covid-19 hit the world in 2020. Unable to see my family due to the travel restrictions, I really wished my dog, Lulu, could have just taken a flight from Taiwan to London to see me by herself. I eventually turned this wish into this work.

This work was debuted in Hackney Comic+Zine Fair organised by Joe Stone in 2021, and received a review from Andy Oliver, Editor-in-chief from Broken Frontier.
