Kaoru .
Born in Perak, Kaoru has been enthusiastic about comics ever since she was old enough to grasp a pencil and draw. No wonder she became the first female cartoonist in Malaysia to ever appear in manga-influenced style. While her works are very neat simple yet exotic it has revolved around on more love-oriented stories although still preserving the sense of intellectuality and substance. With the likes of "Siri Maskeret Cinta" she also has produced a series of action adventure graphic novels aptly titled "Helios Eclipse."
