I want to introduce you to Melike Acar who is a perfect and talented illustrator. Melike was born on 4th August 1978 in Istanbul.She had a problematic education life because of her dyslexia and not attendance. She went to Anadolu University- Faculty of Fine Arts, but couldn't manage to graduate. After leaving her college, she got some technics taught by Galip Tekin and started to work for some popular comics such as Leman, L-Manyak and Atom. However, after working for 6 years for these comics, she gave up working for them owing to some disagreements with editor.Now she works for world's famous companies such as Marvel, Upperdeck, Rıttenhouse, DC, Breygent, Image Comics etc. She even worked for popular rock band Metallica for their Orion Fest. Due to her hard working, she sees herself as an asocial person and describes herself as a zombie in mornings and a vampire at nights. She is an animal lover and as far as I know she has a cat whose name is Lavi and some other pets. She is also known as the hottest woman-illustrator on some websites.
