"Made in Korea is the best comic book we've read in the last decade." --Portland Mercury New York Public Library Best New Comics of 2022 for Adults A Korean nine-year-old named Jesse is adopted and sent to live with a lovely couple in America. Equipped with a seemingly encyclopedic brain but socially awkward, the young girl's journey through the complexities of race, gender, and identity hits a fork in the road when she discovers she's not entirely human...yet. Adolescence just got a lot more emotional for the world's first true A.I. system.

About the AuthorJeremy Holt is a non-binary author whose works include What If?...Venom, Gatsby, Made in Korea, Virtually Yours, Before Houdini, and Skip to the End.
An original art page from After Houdini was acquired by The Houdini Museum of NYC, where it now hangs in its permanent collection. And Skip to the End was one of three works of fiction that The New York Times included in an in-depth expose titled Kurt Cobain: What to Read and Watch, 25 Years After the Nirvana Leader's Death.
