He created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded by many as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era.Poon: - Nokman Poon says her greatest passion for drawing comics comes from the globally popular video arcade game Street Fighter. She says she was inspired to become an artist through Street Fighter. When she wasn't playing the game (as a child) she would draw her favorite characters in fight scenes in order to quench her thirst of playing the game. Her years of training in comic of fighting genre gives her drawing a touch of firmness and crisp that rivals a male artist. Nokman enjoys sampling cuisine from all over the world. She admits that recently she has become addicted to playing mobile games during her leisure time.
