鄭問，本名鄭進文，為台灣風靡全亞洲之漫畫巨擘，不僅融合水墨藝術與西方繪畫技巧之美學特殊，其創作技法與媒材更寬廣不拘。鄭問的職業生涯足跡遍布台灣、日本、香港、中國等地，創作作品包含動漫與遊戲美術，於1990年代在日本發表作品瞬即引起轟動，以《東周英雄傳》獲得日本漫畫家協會「優秀賞」，並盛讚其為「亞洲至寶」。鄭問靈活運用漫畫單格，鎔鑄成獨樹一幟的「鄭問美學」，迄今尚無人比擬。

本片耗時2年，拍攝團隊奔走15,000公里的飛行航程，橫跨台灣、香港、日本和中國訪談超過50位漫畫及出版界人士。期以鄭問之生涯及創作為經緯，透過畫作翻拍與人物訪談，重現鄭問一生之精神與美學，更擴大描寫兩岸三地及日本漫畫產業，令其帶給後世之影響力予以持續擴散。
