Free Comic Book Day 2008

Filed Under Comics Artists, Elmer, Filipino Artists, Komikero Group, My Comics, Philippine Comics, Timawa, Video Blogs | 23 Comments

It was my first time to participate actively in Free Comic Book Day. Last year when I was drawing “The Black Cat” for Graphic Classics, I didn’t realize it was for FCBD. For years the Graphic Classics gigs were things I did and greatly enjoyed, but it seems hardly anyone saw them locally. I’ve so [...]

The puppies are turning out to be a noisy bunch. Well, one of them at least. After a week of observing them, I’m now very aware of what their individual characteristics are. Boney (the less hairy one) seems to be more independent and smart. She’s also more affectionate, but at the same time the first [...]

Some Me Time, TIMAWA #7!

Filed Under My Comics, Timawa | 1 Comment

Regina Posadas did an interview with me a few months back which now appears on the March-April 2008 issue of MoneySense Magazine. At first I was puzzled why they chose to interview me, as I’ve made many decisions in my life which may well be considered by the more practically minded as financially dubious. [...]

Apologies to everyone who had been waiting for this. This was scheduled to appear in Fudge Magazine last August 2007, soon after the serialization of Humanis Rex finished.

Apologies go to KC Cordero and the rest of The Buzz Magasin team that I was only able to turn in two pages of Timawa this month. There are various reasons not the least of which is my obsession to turn in really good work, causing me to spend more time on a page than [...]

First Real 2008 Post

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 [...]
