Pankat

In the near-future world of Pankat, writer Merwan crafts a tense, single-issue story for Schreiber & Leser that explores the isolating pressures of a society obsessed with digital status. This 2021 debut follows a protagonist navigating a gamified existence where social currency is everything, hinting at the psychological toll of constant performance. Merwan's clean, expressive art grounds the high-concept premise in human vulnerability, making this a striking, self-contained entry point for readers interested in thoughtful, character-driven speculative fiction.
