Mad Cave Studios’ Nakama Press Debuts with INDIGO, a Cosmic Tale of Self-Discovery and Destiny.
Nakama Press is thrilled to announce our inaugural title, INDIGO, the 2023 Hong Kong Comic Support Program Gold Award winner. This science fiction/fantasy is a deeply personal project between talented brothers, author Chi-Ho Kwong (The Architect’s Epiphany) and artist Chi-Kit Kwong, with letters by Charles Pritchett.
Indigo embodies Nakama Press’s mission to bridge cultures, merging the rich traditions of manhua with global storytelling through supernatural mysteries that explore universal themes of empathy, sacrifice, and humanity’s role in the cosmos.

MEET THE CREATORS!

Writer, Chi-Ho Kwong
Born in Hong Kong, Chi-Ho Kwong graduated from the Faculty of Law of the University of Hong Kong in his early years.

But he keeps writing because he enjoys it.
