Summer Komikon 2013 Report

Filed Under Comic Book Signings, Comics Artists, COMICS CONVENTIONS, Filipino Artists, Philippine Comics, Photographs, Video Blogs, Wasted | 20 Comments

Well, perhaps “INSANER” would be apt. Because that’s just how it was. This thing just keeps getting bigger [...]

This Saturday is Summer Komikon 2013. By all indications, the biggest Summer Komikon so far.

Inks on Indestructible Hulk #1

Filed Under Comic Book Signings, Inking, My Art, My Comics | 6 Comments

Quite a few people have asked me during the signing and through email if I had inked Indestructible Hulk #1. The confusion is understandable because my name doesn’t appear in the credits of the book. But yes, I did ink all the pages in the issue, and my name was unfortunately left out. They have [...]
