Meet Maxi is a heartfelt narrative project that began as a slide presentation and was later adapted into a compact, 8-panel zine. Inspired by the true story of a boy with a big heart , the project follows Maximiliano—a creative 3rd grader who loves Minecraft, singing, and making dresses for his dolls. The narrative explores Maxi’s journey of resilience, from navigating major heart surgeries as a baby to managing the daily challenges of ADHD in school. Through vibrant character design and a "dramatic yet cartoonish" style, this project serves as a tool for empathy, encouraging readers to see that kindness makes hearts stronger and that everyone carries their own superhero story.
