[Wisut Ponnimit]

Born in 1976, Wisut Ponnimit is the hottest and the most unique manga artist (in addition to being an animator and musician) on the Bangkok culture scene. He is also the in-house drummer for the Bangkok pop music label "smallroom", and an ally of Thai literary genius, Prabda Yoon. He has lived in Japan since 2004. Some of his latest works are for the cover of 'Nankurunai', the novel by Banana Yoshimoto and his collaboration with FRAPBOIS, the Japanese fashion brand. He hardly seems aware of his phenomenal success in Japan. His Japanese translated comics are [hesheit] and [everybodyeverything]. [hesheit] and [Kwan tai muwak] are published in Thai. His animation DVD will be released very soon.
