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.
Collects MADE IN KOREA #1-6
“A fantastic opening salvo.” —ComicBook.com
“Holt folds their own background as a Korean-born, nonbinary, transracial adoptee, brilliantly melding identity issues with speculative AI enhancement. Brazilian, Barcelona-based Schall’s art provides an ideal, exacting visualization of Holt’s new world. Volume 2 can’t come fast enough!” —Booklist (starred review)
Visually striking... there’s much to chew on in a cool package for philosophical sci-fi fans." —Publishers Weekly
“With perfect pacing and absolutely gorgeous artwork, Made In Korea is highly recommended.” —Brian K. Vaughan
