“I wanted a book where the female heroes are cunning, brave and skilled. I wanted characters that represent the vast majority of us tired of one-dimensional tough guys and scantily-clad sirens!” – M.K. Palmer, writer/creator of MERAKI.
MERAKI comics are the brainchild of writer and former Molecular Biologist M.K. Palmer. In 2014, after leaving her career in the clinical laboratory, Palmer decided to take a leap of faith to pursue her dream of writing. As a member of the gay-team (No, that isn’t a real group, but wouldn’t it be cool if it was?), she set out to create a story with characters that would resonate with her peers.
The artwork is gorgeously rendered by award-winning illustrator Minh Hang and is complete with colors, facial expressions, and physiques that exude depth and sophistication.Palmer rounds out her staff with the editorial talents of industry veterans D.M. Hedlund and James I and the lettering prowess of DC Comics alum Taylor Esposito.
