Filed Under Comic Book Signings, Comics Artists, COMICS CONVENTIONS, Komikero Group, Philippine Comics, Podcast | 12 Comments
Due to some unfortunate technical difficulties, I’m all by myself in the premiere podcast of UNWANTED: Ang Podcast ng Komikero Artists Group. Johnny Danganan, Jonas Diego and I recorded the podcast a few days ago, but the recording turned out to be crap. Since we were recording separately through Skype, the audio was ridiculously uneven.

My dad says it’s adobo so who [...]
