In the discussion of the first episode of 'Agnostic Detective,' the concept of 'sacrificing oneself as a Luohan' was inspired by a local legend of human sacrifice at Da Hu Park in Taipei. Taiwan comics have rarely explored mystery-related themes until recent years when longer works began to emerge. 'Agnostic Detective,' written by Xuesis and illustrated by Yiwuzhou, combines elements of mystery and the supernatural, meticulously arranging each panel to ensure readers fully understand the story progression. Xuesis calculates the screenplay based on 'panels,' providing additional explanations for character dialogues and actions to the artist during storyboard meetings in order to clarify the reasoning process. Yiwuzhou shares the challenge of translating how readers understand the mystery-solving process by incorporating progression reminders and focusing on representing puzzle principles or relationships on the page. Even though the story involves elements of the supernatural, Xuesis maintains a balance where the supernatural does not overly influence the mystery aspect. Their collaboration has attracted many readers to book signings, and Xuesis emphasizes the importance of identifying where supernatural elements should play a role within the mystery aspect from the plotline early on.
