   O My God!! Ito na nga. Totoo nga ang tsismis. Ang isa sa mga makasaysayang lathala at dibuho ni Mr Francisco V. Coching ay narito na. Nakakaloka at hihimatayin ata ako kapag nahawakan ko siya.
   Hindi ko akalaing aabot ako sa henerasyong ito at muling bubuksan ang pinto para sa El Indio. Bumibilis ang pintig ng puso ko, nagkakapalpitasyon ako. Kumukurap-kurap ang talukap ng mata ko at lahat-lahat na. (Painom ng isang basong tubig – :bugtong-hininga)
   Nanalangin ako na sana hindi ito ang huli. Sana masundan pa.
   This is a great opportunity for komiks scholars, enthusiast, collectors and alikes to have a peice of Francisco V. Coching on their shelf.

   Sana sundan pa ng Vibal Press ito ng iba pang KATHA”T GUHIT ni Coching.

   Wala pa bang Redondo, Alcala, at Rodriguez Graphic Novels in the pipeline Gerry?

   MOA? Ang layo.
   Di ba pwedeng sa Comic Odyssey na lang para malapit? hehehe.

   Oscar Gailan Jr:

   Ha-ha-ha!

   Puwede kang mag-stand-up comedian, ah. Pinatawa mo ako sa iyong lengguwahe. Parang spoof ng isang Ravelo dialogues ni Fefita Fofongay! He-he.

   Gerry:

   Wala pala ito sa Amazon. Too bad, kulang sa exposure. Ito na sana ang opportunity para ma-i-showcase sa mundo ang gawa ni Coching.

   Auggie:

   Maganda nga kung pati sina Rodriguez ay magkaroon din ng ganito.

8. jayem cinco on September 18th, 2009 2:56 pm

   sana nga magkaron din ng mga Redondo. paging Mr. Alanguilan…kidding aside, I hope you can help me out with Vibal. I have offered them a number of times if they are interested in the works of our other REAL national artists..

13. Simon Santos on September 19th, 2009 10:07 am

    Auggie, suwerte lang. Cguro ang owner ang nakausap ko, kaya nabigyan ako ng discount.

    Rod, I aready feature the “El Indio” movie in my blog. Here’s the link: http://video48.blogspot.com/2008/09/fv-cochings-el-indio.html

    Thanks!

14. Simon Santos on September 19th, 2009 10:12 am

    Gerry, sana naisama rin lahat ng covers ng “El Indio” sa book. I suppose mga 5 or 6 covers ito.

15. Gerry Alanguilan on September 19th, 2009 11:02 am

    Hello Simon! Yeah, I did ask if they wanted to include the original covers (some of which I got from Erwin), as well as photos of the movie which I got from you. I originally did a layout for it, a different cover, but the idea that they came up for the cover was better so I went with it.

16. Enzo on September 19th, 2009 12:40 pm

    kung ala lang akong fieldwork sa makiling……… pabili!!!!!!

17. Eusebio Yu on September 19th, 2009 8:32 pm

    I just got the book. Dalawa na lang natitira, pero they will replenish it for the last day of the book fair, which is tomorrow. And yes, I asked for a discount and they readily gave it to me at 20% off. Hindi naman owner kausap ko. Just their sales person. I’m pretty sure they will accomodate everyone.

18. Carver on September 20th, 2009 1:19 am

    Huhuhuhu… Nakalimutan kong bumili…huhuhuhu…

    Sana maging available ito soon sa major bookstores.

19. adam! on September 20th, 2009 10:13 am

    Yeah, I did ask if they wanted to include the original covers (some of which I got from Erwin)

    yun pala ang isang natatanging isyu sa libro, na non-issue naman talaga: sabi kasi sa copy sa likod, me recoloured cover daw, and some quiet drawings na unique to the collection … pero wala sila sa libro! pero maganda pa rin siya, at binili ko siya hindi naman para sa quiet drawings and recoloured cover art.

20. Pinoy Comics USA on September 20th, 2009 11:13 am

    Gerry,
    They really did use an excellent cover illustration. Everytime I look at it, it looks like it’s moving from right to left. Umiikot, parang buhay.
    Rod

21. Tin on September 20th, 2009 2:25 pm

    Re covers – Actually the other El Indio covers and stills from the film are in the Coching book. Sorry, may mix-up between creative and marketing. We’re planning to give away posters of the cover art in the El Indio launch.

22. Oscar Gailan, Jr on September 21st, 2009 9:10 pm

    Totoo pala ang kasabihan: Early bird catches the worm. Unfortunately, i wasn’t able to go to MOA to purchase it. Sir gerry, do you have contact number on still where to get a copy?
    waaahhhh.
    this will be greatly appreciated. Thank you po.
    When is the relaunch?

23. Miko on September 21st, 2009 10:10 pm

    Thanks to Simon Santos for the tip, got a 20% discount as well :D

    Eusebio Yu’s right, I think they do readily give the discount. And they did replenish the stock last Sunday so there were a lot when I went there.

    Hope you guys got your copies as well, it’s really something to say the least…

24. Gerry Alanguilan on September 21st, 2009 10:24 pm

    Oscar, they’re launching EL INDIO at Komikon on October 18. Try not to miss that one, lots of titles launching there, and you would be able to buy the First One Hundred Years of Philippine Komiks and Cartoons book. :)

25. Miko on September 22nd, 2009 1:52 am

    @ Tin – will those who got their copies at the Manila Book Fair be eligible to get posters of the cover art in the El Indio launch at the Komikon? Here’s hoping for a “yes” :D

    @ Gerry – forgot to thank you earlier. You and Zara did a great job! I’ll be reading my copy for the 2nd time later to better appreciate all those beautiful lines and brush strokes :D

26. JASON on October 5th, 2009 2:00 am
