If the comics are drawn exquisitely and beautifully enough, many readers will want to buy a set to take home and collect even if they have already read it!
Just like now, Li Shiqi has clearly finished reading this comic, but still can't help but continue to look at the beautiful illustrations inside!
"Sister Nanxing, this comic is quite good! Especially the characters in it, they are so good-looking! It's very different from the comics I've read before! For example, the characters in comics like "Old Master Q", "13 O'clock", "Bruce Lee" and "Dragon Tiger Gate" are all drawn in that kind of... well, very sloppy and sloppy feeling! But this comic you showed me is simply a work of art! All the characters in it are exquisite and beautiful! Even when I was reading this comic book, I was very careful, for fear of causing the slightest wrinkle in the book, which would be a shame!"
Li Shiqi held the comic in her hand like a baby and couldn't help but say.
Xu Nanxing had collected and roughly read the comic books that Li Shiqi mentioned.
The characters in these comics are indeed not very good-looking.
Especially comics like "Bruce Lee" and "Dragon Tiger Gate", because they are kung fu comics, in order to depict the strength of the protagonist, the protagonist is drawn with strong muscles all over the body, and the appearance is also drawn very perfunctorily, so they cannot attract the attention of female readers at all!
"13 O'clock" is a girls' comic that was first published in Hong Kong in the 1960s. Not only are all the characters in it young and beautiful, but most of their clothes are also fashionable and beautiful. It is a comic that is very popular among young women.
The protagonist of this comic is called "13 o'clock". Her role is positioned as an 18-year-old rich girl. She eats delicious food, drives a sports car, throws parties, gambles with others, and donates the money she wins to charity. This kind of life of "making money to buy flowers to wear" is indeed the dream of all women, especially in the 1960s when ordinary people could not afford three meals a day.
The comic book "13 O'Clock" can be considered the first generation of girls' comics in Hong Kong. Its style resembled the oriental style of Japanese manga, with its heroines featuring large eyes, high noses, and fair skin, and predominantly Western-style clothing. The diverse range of clothing styles made "13 O'Clock" a model for many girls of the time.
In fact, the biggest selling point of this comic is that the protagonist often changes into new fashions, which is dazzling.
Statistics have shown that from the 1st to the 28th issue, a total of 1,728 fashion items appeared, with an average of 62 items per issue. This provided readers with a lot of popular information, making "13 o'clock" a popular product in the 1960s and 1970s.
In addition, each issue of the comic will have a page printed with a paper model and a variety of new fashions that can be worn on the model, including sportswear, evening wear, casual wear, pajamas, and party wear.
Many girls would cut up these beautiful clothes and use them to change the models' clothes.
It’s a paper version of a dress-up game!
This was a very popular way of playing at the time!
Characters from the comic "13 o'clock"
Maybe modern people can’t think of what’s so fun about this, but when we mention a dress-up game that has caused a wide impact around the world - "Miracle Nikki", we can more intuitively imagine how popular this comic was at that time!
This dress-up game app has over 300 million registered users worldwide, relying solely on selling in-game costumes. It generates 100 million RMB in revenue each month in China alone, and also rakes in 100 million RMB annually in overseas markets!
With such a record, one can imagine how big an impact the comic "13 O'clock", which is also a dress-up game, can have in Hong Kong in this era!
Thinking of this, Xu Nanxing couldn't sit still anymore!
She can also follow the example of the "13 o'clock" comics and launch paper-based dress-up game sheets of the "Meteor Garden" characters!
