UNANG LABAS
Filed Under Comics Artists, Filipino Artists, Online Comics, Philippine Comics | 3 Comments
“Unang Labas” is a blog I only just found out about, run by Steve Santos. It has an extraordinary amount of scans from old Philippine comics, many with complete segments, and many “Part 1″ (Unang Labas) segments. Since it’s a blog that doesn’t list an archive list, I can’t tell when the blog began, but [...]

Merry Christmas Everybody!
Filed Under Filipino Artists, Online Comics, Philippine Comics | 3 Comments
Digging through my big vault of komiks (actually just a few plastic boxes in the living room), I found this issue of Espesyal Komiks from 1956. It’s a special Christmas issue and typical of Christmas themed komiks of this era, it contains several complete Christmas short stories in color. One of the stories I particularly [...]

Komikon 2008
Filed Under Comics Artists, Elmer, Filipino Artists, My Comics, Online Comics, Philippine Comics, Timawa, Wasted | 12 Comments
By 12 noon it was already quite difficult to go around. There were that many people. I don’t have a headcount, but it’s quite plain to anyone who was there last year that this year’s crowd was just insane. I’ve had little opportunity to go around myself as I was almost completely tied to my [...]

The New Komikero Dot Com!
Filed Under Internet, My Art, My Comics, Online Comics | 4 Comments
The new Komikero dot com is now up and running! It took a couple of days, but I felt I had to do it now because I’ll be very busy the coming next month or so and I wouldn’t have been able to take care of it then. The new site has an all new [...]

Eugene and Coffee
Filed Under Family, My Comics, Online Comics | 7 Comments
It’s a been a year, almost to the day, that my dog Eugene, died. I didn’t talk about it on this blog because I find it uncomfortable to talk about very personal things here. Much of that personal stuff I keep offline and between family and close friends. But I couldn’t help express that grief [...]

My 2007. I Hated It.
Filed Under Dr. Rizal, Elmer, Filipino Artists, Humanis Rex!, My Comics, Online Comics, Philippine Comics, Timawa | 9 Comments
In my earlier post I mentioned that it would be my last update for 2007. It turns out I had something more to say with only one day to go before 2008. I want to get all this out of my system before a new year comes rolling along so I can talk about something [...]

Wasted Online: The End!
Filed Under My Comics, Online Comics | 1 Comment
Wasted finally ends it’s serialization on Tuesday this week. You will now be able to read Wasted in its entirety beginning here. And with this, my foray into webcomics ends, at least for the meantime. Crest Hut Online was my attempt to do new material for the web, but as time went on, I was [...]

TIMAWA Online!
Filed Under My Comics, Online Comics, Timawa | 19 Comments
Timawa is my somewhat serious stab at doing a proper “superhero”. It was not my first attempt, as I was involved in the still in limbo but completed LAKAN. I created a superhero for that called “Katutubo” who could absorb tectonic and volcanic energies of the earth and use it for a variety of things [...]

Only In The Philippines
Filed Under Family, My Comics, Online Comics | 3 Comments
“Tales of The Big City” is a series of short stories I did for PULP MAGAZINE during its initial issues in 2000. On its third issue, I wrote the story of a bus driver, inspired by real events I read about in the newspapers. I just read it again and I was taken aback by [...]

My Feathered Friends
Filed Under General, Online Comics | 2 Comments
It’s been two months since Eugene died. But I’m over that. However, things have changed around here more than I realized. I didn’t even talk about it very much in this blog, not directly at least. I miss having him to play with or even talk with when I’m feeling tired, bored, or just off. [...]

Photo Crest Huts and other Things
Filed Under Dr. Rizal, My Comics, Online Comics, Video Blogs | 11 Comments
I’m really having fun with the new Crest Hut Butt Shop online. Not having to actually draw it, and having my own font to letter it, it’s actually nice creating these comic strips from photographs. Photographs have been entering into the strip a few times over the past couple of months, so when time became [...]

Get WASTED Online!
Filed Under My Comics, Online Comics | 2 Comments
Disheveled, hair down to my chest, arms with ugly red lines, I glared at everybody inside the jeep. Drunk nearly every weekend, I staggered home, and cried to sleep in the dark, wishing for death. It was truly a dark place I was coming from, in the time that spanned July 1993 and July 1994. [...]

I can finally make the announcement that “The Marvelous Adventures of the Amazing Dr. Rizal” will begin serializing in FUDGE Magazine beginning in August, with two full color pages a month! I’ve been receiving a lot of feedback about this series from this blog and from pages I posted at DeviantArt, and like Elmer, there’s [...]

Auction for a Pal, Phone Woes.
Filed Under Komikero Group, Online Comics, ORAS MO NA! | 1 Comment
It’s not having Internet that really burns me up, it’s the fact that come next billing, PLDT will STILL be asking me to pay for service I never got. In the comments section, Reno tells me that they do offer refunds, which makes this situation not completely suck. I can go to a cafe once [...]
