Shaolin Burning

Shaolin Burning is a kung fu saga set in turbulent, seventeenth century China. It tells the story of two kung fu fighters, Deadly Plum Blossom and Monk Who Doubts, whose paths are destined to cross.

Breathing new life into kung fu mythology and Chinese history, it’s a story of breath-taking beauty and no-holds-barred, kick-ass action sequences – but is at heart a “meditation on the sacrifices and choices demanded by art.”

Drawn in a slicker style than Ant’s previous graphic novel (The Dharma Punks), Shaolin Burning combines Ant’s expressive brushstrokes with digital grey-tones and lettering.
