Comic writers S. D Lockhart (Sphinx Scribbles) and artist Patibut Narm Preeyawongsakul (Let’s Comic, Thailand, 2014) from Thailand created the colourful and bright icon that is Starpunch Girl, as a weekly webcomic published online in 2013. Starpunch Girl is a cosmic entity, her home is enslaved by a Black Hole Army led by nemesis Blackhole Boy but with the power of stars in her fists Starpunch Girl creates a fighting force of human beings ready for battle. The story shifts between Starpunch Girl observing her creations as they grow and the humans who worship and wonder about their creator. Its creators used Kickstarter to raise the funds to publish it as a paperback. This work features in Mangasia: Wonderlands of Asian Comics, a Barbican International Enterprises exhibition, curated by Paul Gravett. Mangasia presents a vivid journey through the art of Comics and visual storytelling across Asia. From its historical roots to the most recent digital innovations, the exhibition looks to popular Japanese ‘Manga’ and beyond, highlighting key creators, characters and publications.
