Pandola is a captivating tale where "some journeys change the world. This one will change the truth." A rescue mission turns into a reckoning as the line between hero and villain blurs in the sands of the post-apocalypse.

After the apocalypse, the Earth is nothing but dust and ruin. From the heart of the desert, a single city rises—ruled by the Demon King who brought the world to its knees.

To save his closest friend, Summer, Esper joins a band of wanderers bound by uneasy alliances and hidden motives. Their path leads straight into the Demon King’s domain.

But the truth awaiting them inside the City of Demons may rewrite everything they thought they knew about the end—and the beginning—of the world.

About the Author

Keung started drawing comics after studying of illustration and graphic design. After winning the Comics New Talent Award by Rightman Comics in 1999, he became one of the most popular comics writers of CO-CO!. He has written a number of humorous comics including Samba Family. Appreciated by publishers in mainland China and Singapore, Samba series was published in simplified Chinese and English. In 2008, Keung won the 4th Golden Dragon Award Original Animation & Comic Competition – The Best Children Comics Award. In 2015, Keung was invited by Hong Kong Arts Centre to be one of the Hong Kong comics representatives joining The Angoulême International Comics Festival in France, and to decorate the tram body for Ding! Ding! Comix Tram. In 2016, Samba was selected as one of the new characters for Hong Kong Avenue of Comics Star and Ani-Com Park @ Harbour“FUN”. In 2020, he participated in Oxfam's "Little Citizens of the World" educational picture book project and launched the picture book "The Best Inventions”; in the same year, he also launched the "Samba STEM" science knowledge comic series. In 2022, with the support of the first "Hong Kong Comic Support Program”, the comic "PANDOLA" was launched.

Henrism (????) is an award-winning Hong Kong comic artist and illustrator, best known for the horror work The Head-down Tribe, which won a local comics competition, and the youth manga Backwards Journey («???»). A skilled educator in digital illustration, Henrism teaches color, lighting, perspective, and anatomy in drawing courses. In Pandola, they brought the world to life through richly atmospheric background art—painting the desolate desert landscapes and foreboding castle interiors that ground the narrative in immersive detail.

Rain helped bring Pandola's world to life through expressive use of color, enhancing the story’s emotional palette—from desolate landscapes to moments of confrontation.

Co-appointed with Rain, Jing-jing's joint work added depth and visual cohesion, infusing scenes with mood and narrative resonance.
