---
Manuel Luis “Manix” Abrera (b. 1982) graduated with a degree in Fine Arts from the University of the Philippines Diliman. He is a freelance cartoonist, and is the creator of Kikomachine Komix, his long-running daily strip in the Philippine Daily Inquirer. He also contributes a weekly webcomic, News Hardcore! for GMA News Online.
To date, he has produced 16 volumes of Kikomachine Komix, and News Hardcore compilation volume 1. He also released two wordless graphic novels entitled “12” and “14”, and self-published books: “Li’l Bertong Badtrip!” and “The Terror Prof”. Manix also collaborated with National Artist Ricky Lee, with “Si Amapola” (Book 1), a graphical adaptation of his novel, ‘Si Amapola sa 65 na Kabanata’.
Manix Abrera gained recognition for his works as a three-time National Book Awardee for “14”(2015), “News Hardcore: Hukbong Sandatahan ng Kahaggardan” (2016) and “Kikomachine Komix Volume 14: Alaala ng Kinabukasan”(2019).
Manix’s art style and discipline is strongly influenced by his father, Jess Abrera, an award-winning editorial cartoonist and Inquirer pioneer, while Manix’s love and talent of storytelling is naturally honed in him by his mother, Prof. Bernadette Abrera, a historian and current Dean of the UP College of Social Sciences and Philosophy.
Manix considers himself an incessant child of the universe, always in pursuit of stories and mysteries which he immortalizes and passes on through his art.

We met Manix Abrera in 2018 during our book launch. Wohooo!!!🙌🙌🙌
Ang advice nya sa mga pastart pa lang na authors, meaning wala pang breakthrough: Keep writing and putting your contents out there. Show up din kahit isa, dalawa lang audience mo. Time will come you'll have a breakthrough at babalikan lahat ng audience mga first works mo. So Keep writing and showing up!"
