懸疑 靈異 歷史 冒險
「隨著蝴蝶徘徊在現實與幻境、過去與現今的邊界,溫柔、絢爛卻在結局揭曉時透出巨大的悲傷。」——立法委員・林昶佐/「在這場不可思議的尋蝶之旅之中,看似閱讀一則奇想的童話,實際上卻是直視著臺灣這座島嶼的身世。劇中的人與蝶,象徵著生活在島上你我,那難解的過去,複雜糾葛的現代,與不可知的未來。」——漫畫研究者・翁稷安
"As the butterfly hovers between reality and illusion, past and present, it ultimately leaves behind an immense sorrow—wrapped in gentleness and breathtaking beauty."——Legislator and Vocal of Chthonic, Freddy Lim/“This extraordinary journey in search of butterflies unfolds like a dreamlike fantasy, yet it stares directly into Taiwan’s history. The people and butterflies within these pages reflect the struggles and hopes of those living on this island—an unresolved past, a tangled present, and an uncertain future."——Cartoon researcher, Weng Gi-ant

KUCHiXO 唸作「枯奇口」,法式新北路人。想漫畫的事多於畫漫畫,常常在畫與不畫之間選擇了後者,但最後又還是讓許多該畫的、該想的落到了心裡,於是精神還會持續泡在創作的意欲,只不過會慢慢地、緩緩地讓祂自然孕生。自費出版有《金色隔間》、《Do You Realize??》(原作魏豫豪),以及其他短篇,詳請見IG帳號:@kuchixo。

在奇異又魔幻寫實的林中,找尋那蝶的身影⋯⋯ 中國移民來臺二代的昆蟲學家・鞏為樺,身負帶回臺灣特有種蝴蝶至祖國的任務,在宜蘭太平山中尋找著「夢幻之蝶」的身影;不巧遇見了同在森林中,以相機捕捉蝶影之美的日本業餘攝影師・荒村木一,兩人於是展開了一回又一回的對話,並在冥冥之中,與林中深處遊蕩、無臉的啞巴捕蝶人邂逅;捕蝶人失去的聲音,也逐漸在種種詭譎事件的發生中,揭露了其過去白色恐怖的經驗,然而這一切是否只存在這繁茂的森林中?抑或是有什麼人聽見了? 特別感謝林昶佐(立法委員)、柳廣成(漫畫創作者)、翁稷安(漫畫研究者)、陳沛珛(漫畫創作者)、陳怡靜(漫畫記者/大人的漫畫社)、黃珮珊(慢工出版社社長)、黃震南(活水來冊房主理人)的鼓勵與支持。[按首字筆畫排序]
A Haunting Tale of History, Memory, and Metamorphosis Deep within the misty forests of Taiping Mountain, Yilan, two strangers cross paths—Gong Wei-hua, a second-generation immigrant entomologist from China, Aramura Kiichi, an amateur photographer from Japan. Their shared obsession? The elusive Dream Butterfly—a creature said to blur the line between myth and reality. As they traverse the wilderness, a mysterious, faceless butterfly hunter joins their journey. But beneath his silence lies a buried truth—one woven into Taiwan’s dark past. Through whispered confessions and eerie encounters, the hunter’s voice slowly returns, unraveling a chilling tale of White Terror, loss, and the echoes of history. But in the depths of the forest, where time bends and memories shift—Are some stories meant to stay unheard? And when the butterflies take flight, who will remember?
