On Tuesday, Lisa’s management agency, LLOUD, announced the release of a limited edition comic book titled ALTER EGO: THE OFFICIAL COMIC, designed to accompany the K-pop star’s debut solo album. The comic was produced by Lisa’s own company, Lalisa Comics, in collaboration with graphic novel publisher Zero Zero Entertainment, a company known for partnering with entertainment industry artists to create original content.
What’s the Story About?
Immerse yourself in a neon-lit cyberpunk city where Vixi, a quiet tech prodigy, finds solace in repairing arcade machines rather than chasing fame. Despite her introverted nature, she becomes the unlikely glue that binds four extraordinary friends: Roxi, a social media star struggling with the pressures of fame and craving authentic relationships; Kiki, a relentless arcade champion with an indomitable spirit; Sunni, a calm mediator hiding her own emotional turmoil; and Speedi, a daring adventurer learning the value of patience.
When Vixi is ensnared in a virtual reality nightmare by three merciless bullies, her friends plunge into the digital battlefield to rescue her. Together, they demonstrate that while Vixi may prefer solitude, she never has to face her battles alone.
This captivating narrative, brought to life through stunning visuals and compelling storytelling, promises to resonate with fans and comic enthusiasts alike
A Unique Creative Vision
Lisa’s comic book is a collaboration between her newly founded company, Lalisa Comics, and Zero Zero Entertainment, a renowned graphic novel publisher. The comic brings to life five distinct characters—Vixi, Roxi, Kiki, Sunni, and Speedi—each representing different facets of Lisa’s personality. The story is set in a neon-drenched cyberpunk city, where Vixi, a tech genius, is trapped in a virtual reality nightmare by bullies. Her friends must then dive into a digital battleground to save her, showcasing themes of friendship and resilience24.
The artwork, illustrated by Japanese artist MINOMIYABI, is visually stunning, capturing the essence of Lisa’s album and its multifaceted personas. The comic also features contributions from Brandon Montclare (dialogue), Josh Frankel (editing), and Derick Jones (background design), ensuring a high-quality production4.
Fan Excitement and Limited Availability
Fans have eagerly embraced this innovative project. The limited edition comic, priced at $19.99, quickly sold out its 100 signed copies, with unsigned versions still available on lalisacomics.com. The comic is set to ship on March 24, 2025, just weeks after the album’s release24.
Social media has been abuzz with excitement, with fans praising Lisa’s creativity and the comic’s unique storytelling. One fan tweeted, “Lalisa Comics sounds like a super cool venture! Can’t wait to see her unique stories and characters come to life!”4.
A Broader Promotional Strategy
The Alter Ego Comic Bundle is part of a larger promotional campaign for Lisa’s debut solo album, which features tracks like Rockstar, New Woman (featuring Rosalía), and Moonlit Floor (Kiss Me). Lisa has been teasing the five-persona concept since November 2024, with an album trailer hinting at the alter egos’ contrasting aesthetics. In a recent interview, she revealed that Vixi is her favorite persona, describing her as “the bada–, she’s a villain”2.
This project also follows Lisa’s acting debut in HBO’s The White Lotus Season 3, where she played Mook, a wellness coach and performer. Her foray into comics further solidifies her status as a multifaceted artist, unafraid to explore new creative avenues24.
Conclusion
Lisa’s Alter Ego Comic Bundle is more than just a promotional tool—it’s a testament to her artistic vision and willingness to push boundaries. By blending music, storytelling, and visual art, she has created a unique experience for her fans. As the release date approaches, the excitement continues to build, proving once again that Lisa is a trailblazer in the entertainment industry.
