Edit: Some people told me they'd be interested in reading here (in the description section) about the references to celtic artwork and the folklore stories that I make throughout the comic. I did read a lot in preparation for this comic so I'll be more than happy to talk about it, as a hobby reader in this subject, not a professional, of course. I'll be adding these info snippets on pages where it is relevant.

These two prologue pages are based on the illuminated script of a bible from the 8th or 9th century AD, the "Book of Kells". Although a christian bible, it features a lot of typically celtic ornaments and fantastical creatures, that clearly have their roots in pre-christian faith. I really recommend looking at the original pages for this, the level of intricacy is absolutely mind-blowing.

Took me a while to realise that the big design-pattern-thing at the starting of the paragraph was a 'B'

This is a story about Pan, a young druid on his quest for wisdom. His journey leads him and his blackbird friend Krah into the forests of the Old Land, inhabited by only a few humans and an abundance of strange, magical creatures.

As he searches for the original source of the wisdom that will help the people of his village out of a year of hardships, he stumbles upon fragments of a dark ancient legend that had been buried deep in the soil of the Old Land until now.

“Wanderlicht” is a light-hearted fantasy/adventure comic inspired by celtic art and european folklore.
