‘Mooncakes’ Is a Heart Warming, Spell Binding Magical Read

Writer: Suzanne Walker / Artist: Wendy Xu / Lion Forge Comics Mooncakes is one of the most satisfying stories, and most certainly one of my favorites, to come out of comics in the year of 2019. I say this as someone who has been a fan of both Wendy and Suzanne for years, following their work from Tumblr to Twitter. The opening Letter to the Readers sketches out the history of this book: “Mooncakes began on the eve of separation, in spring of 2015, as Suzanne was preparing to move back to Chicago and Wendy remained in New York. Our creative partnership became a way to keep our friendship alive and thriving, the space where we could connect across the country”. This graphic novel is a reunion for the two and a project that thrived under circumstances that kill many relationships. For those who have followed each incarnation of their world, including Walker and Xu’s earlier version, opening Mooncakes feels familiar, like a piece of home. For new readers and new fans, this will be greatly loved and bookmarked after settling in for a chapter or two. From popular webcomic to a published graphic novel, Mooncakes is a treat for those wanting a heartfelt and engaging read of rekindled feelings and fighting for everything important to you.
