I’m Michael Lauzardo, better known as MALO—

a freelance comic artist, illustrator, and visual designer with over 20 years of experience.

Through Art of Malo, I create original artwork, sketch covers, commissions, and sequential art inspired by comics, fantasy, sci-fi, and pop culture. From iconic characters to creator-owned projects like Tamakire (魂裂), my focus is always on creating bold artwork that tells a story and leaves an impression.
