The second series of Liu Cixin's science fiction comics, CITIC Publishing Group Co., Ltd. published "great painting style" in June 2021 "Like watching sci-fi blockbusters!" Netizens commented on the four works of the second series of Liu Cixin's sci-fi comics, namely, supporting mankind, devourer, chaotic butterfly and circle. Liu Cixin's novel readers and cartoon readers instinctively compare the versions of two different forms of expression. The author also tries to compare the two versions. Taking chaotic butterfly as an example, the short story shows a smooth and full narrative ability, but the cartoon shows a clearer sense of rhythm, especially the touching warmth among family members - love, care, giving and cruel loss. "Hello! I'm Liu Cixin." In the second series, there is a letter from Liu Cixin to the readers, with Liu Cixin's autograph and the handwritten "based on the earth and looking up to the stars". Liu Cixin wrote: "we humans are born with curiosity about the universe and desire for the unknown world, and this is the soul of science fiction, which makes her look like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning. May we be full of love and bathe in her vitality and warmth... May my works and Liu Cixin's science fiction cartoon series" Works can give you wings of interest and love, help you soar under the sky of imagination and explore the light of hope in deep thoughts. " As Liu Cixin wishes, "Liu Cixin science fiction cartoon series" has indeed put wings on the original, helping readers "soar under the sky of imagination". In the second episode, the famous French screenwriter selwan rieberg adapted and the Spanish artist Mickey Montero painted "supporting mankind". The scene drama conflict has explosive power, the character depiction lines are fine, the environmental background level is exquisite, and the story turns and moves forward in continuous narration, making the psychological level of the protagonist killer's smooth chamber richer and more perceptible in the past tense and the present tense. Adapted by the famous French screenwriter Jean David morvin and painted by Chinese artist Yang Weilin, the story starts with the ruins of Abyssinia plateau and plateau in Ethiopia to arouse the curiosity of readers. The painting style of the whole work is complex and exquisite, making great efforts in details. The integrity of the scene is prominent, the plot is ups and downs, and the rhythm is strong. "Chaotic butterfly" is edited by American artist Dan panosian. The family line and war line are parallel. One side is human warmth and the other side is fighting against war. The extensive use of close-up characters can help readers quickly understand dialogue and narration. Each appearance of the two page panorama is meaningful and makes readers' feelings more extended in the length of the picture. The circle was compiled by the French artist Xavier bass. The description of the three million elite soldiers with a strong lineup is a highlight of the cartoon. The very puzzling content in the novel has been more intuitively expressed through the international ink style images. Liu Cixin's Sci Fi cartoon series is an original cartoon project authorized by Liu Cixin and organized by Beijing Man Legend Culture Communication Co., Ltd. The project has brought together more than 20 top cartoon artists in the world, including Zhang Xiaoyu, Yang Weilin and other leading figures in China's cartoon industry, as well as international cartoonists who have participated in the creation of characters in Batman and X-Men. From 2019, it is planned to use four years to adapt 15 works such as wandering the earth, rural teachers, micro era, supporting mankind and spherical lightning into cartoons. The project planning team reproduced Liu Cixin's works in the form of comics. In addition to considering the charm of science fiction content itself, it was also inspired and encouraged by the visual expressiveness of the original work. The words in Liu Cixin's works have a sense of film, which can let readers imagine all kinds of pictures. The comic series adapted and published have different styles, such as magnificent, ethereal, hot, quiet, beautiful, lights out, smoke curling, or earth shaking... Liu Cixin once said that images are the best expression of science fiction, which turns abstract images into concrete images. Liu Cixin's sci-fi works are full of reflections on human destiny, science and technology, war, etc. the figurative expression of comics, especially the pushing and closing of scenes and the sharp close-up pictures of various painting styles, make the characters' psychology and feelings more fully released. For example, in chaotic butterfly, Alexander, who finally learned that his wife and children had died, turned into a butterfly with wings. With his unfinished mission and infinite sadness, he lit a flame in the Antarctic snow - "this is an ordinary flame, a flame that cannot act on sensitive points, and a flame that will not bring clouds and dense fog to his motherland". He muttered to himself: "for the suffering of the motherland, I flutter the wings of a butterfly." The brave man who left his hometown and went all over the world to save his suffering motherland finally failed to save his motherland and lost all his family. The reading of comics can bring readers a stronger sense of doom and the same fate in the literary creation.
