When i still young, "lao fu zi" was my favourite comic....
Till now, i still love it...
The comic strips range from simple gags told over a few wordless panels, to full stories told over several pages. There is no main storyline. Each strip is pretty much a self contained joke or story. Sometimes the jokes rely purely on the comic appearance of the three main characters but often they are satirical too and refer to certain Hong Kong attitudes (e.g the constant mockery of Chinese people who try to look 'western' - typically portrayed as pouting, flared suit-wearing poncey idiots).
I've tried to think of a simple phrase that sums up 'Lo Fu Zi'. The best I can come up with is 'life makes fools of us all.' Everytime i reading, my mood will get better of the funny story...
