Vernieda Vergara first discovered manga as a teenager when a friend gave her a copy of Battle Angel Alita for her birthday. The introduction sparked a lifelong affair with Japanese comics that continues to this day. Vernieda’s manga must-read lists, anime reviews, articles, and more have appeared on sites including Den of Geek, Book Riot, and Women Write about Comics. She lives in the suburbs of Washington, DC, where she practices yoga, drinks far too much bubble tea, and takes care of even more houseplants. Andy Price is an American comic artist. He is also the creator of The Cryptid Creatures Coloring Book and The Creepy Krampus Coloring Book.
