In 2017 Zuluaga's work was also included Mine!, a comic collection to benefit Planned Parenthood that included works by Neil Gaiman, Gail Simone, and Gerard Way. [4]

Personal life

Zuluaga is named after Madeline from the children's books of the same name by Ludwig Bemelmans at the request of her sister. [2] It wasn't until the end of her college career that Zuluaga came to the realization that she wanted to be a storyteller. [2]
