“Impossible”

Filed Under Family, General, My Comics | 14 Comments

There was a time when I believed working in comics wouldn’t be possible. Superman and Batman and the X-Men were just things I read, created by god-like people in some fantasy land. Well, I was very young back then and my view of the world was still quite limited. Inspired by the comics I read, [...]

Blog Update

Filed Under General | 1 Comment

My bro (who handles all this behind the scenes stuff in my blog such as updating Wordpress and all of that), has updated to the newest version of Wordpress just a short while ago. I’ve noticed that everytime an update is done, something weird happens. I’ve pretty much taken care of all the things I’ve [...]

Lost

Filed Under Family, General | 19 Comments

Leaving the old house today, I saw these two dirty puppies right on our front doorstep. Ok, it was more like gate-step. They looked bewildered, looking around as if seeing everything for the first time. Since our old house runs along a very busy street, the things were in very real danger of getting run [...]

HOT

Filed Under General | 15 Comments

It’s been so hot lately, it’s insane. That’s here in San Pablo. What more for you guys over there in Manila? The Komikero group ought to have gone to a swimming meet today, Lord knows we need it, but I didn’t feel like it considering I was too bothered thinking about my brother. He fell [...]

Oh, I Feel So Bad….

Filed Under General, My Comics | 8 Comments

No, really. I honestly thought that most of you would catch it, this being April 1 and all. I’ve traditionally made April 1 jokes for like 4 years now, and every year people catch on. Perhaps I was being too obvious each time.
Well this year, I thought I’d make it a bit more subtle, more [...]

Here I am, once again, in an Internet cafe because the Internet has become a necessity for me to conduct my work and my business. I’m offline at home for reasons I don’t know. My connection went down yesterday afternoon and it’s never come back. I called PLDT and confirmed that I’ve paid all my [...]

More Crescent Shield

Filed Under General | 2 Comments

It turns out that Crescent Shield’s first CD, “The Last of My Kind” was quite a success and they’re now working on their second album. And again they want me to do the cover for it! Absolutely cool! Definitely, I said yes. Not only are they a really cool bunch of people, but I feel [...]

When Fans Go Pro

Filed Under Comics Artists, General | 9 Comments

This is a response of sorts to Carlo Vergara’s post on his blog titled “Floundering: A Comics Conundrum” where he notes his floundering interest in reading comics.
I too have experienced the same thing, but the strange thing is, it’s happened to a lot of people I know who were big fans of comics who eventually [...]

Forty

Filed Under General | 24 Comments

The last day I was nineteen I was in Malabon, desperately trying win over a girl before I turned twenty. By that time I’ve never had a truly serious relationship, and typical of the young and immature, I felt that if I didn’t have a girlfriend when I stopped being a teenager the world will [...]

First Real 2008 Post

Filed Under Elmer, General, Humanis Rex!, My Comics, Timawa | 10 Comments

The past couple of months have been a blur. As far as I’m concerned, yesterday was the end of 2007, and today is a new day, and a new year. It feels very much like a whole new, and whole different chapter in my life.
I worked like mad for the past several weeks just to [...]
