1) Zourik is from El Salvador, not Brazil, and he currently resides in Colombia.
2) Zourik's English isn't perfect, but he clearly learned the language to a passable level at some point (you can still see mistakes here and there) and besides, I've only heard of him going to cons in Argentina and México. This comic's script in particular is not by him, but by Alexei Prowess and the translator they hired.
3) What about Zourik's drawing process lacks credibility????? His art is very sloppy, full of weird proportions that change between pages, the same body types over and over, the same cookie-cutter plots, barely any backgrounds, the cheap and easy kind of shading, occassionally overwrought dialogue that was clearly not proof-read, tons of close-ups and middle shots (meaning there's very little variety in the angles and not much to draw per panel), flat textures... of course it's easy to spread yourself (thin) when you aren't careful and meticulous. His art isn't impressive in the least, so calling him "flawless" and accusing him of using AI to "perfect it" is ridiculous.
