Free Comic Book Day 2008

Filed Under Comics Artists, Elmer, Filipino Artists, Komikero Group, My Comics, Philippine Comics, Timawa, Video Blogs | 24 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 [...]

Iloilo and Komikero Meeting Videos

Filed Under Komikero Group, Philippine Comics, Video Blogs | 1 Comment

I’ve been doing my videos a little bit differently. Less talking to the camera and more narration and music… just to keep things different. I really like how the Iloilo video came out. I think I’ll do more videos of the type from now on, but because they’re longer to do, I might not do [...]

CHICKEN JOY: The Elmer Comic Book Documentary

Filed Under Elmer, My Comics, Video Blogs | 7 Comments

Edgar Tadeo created this documentary on Elmer, and I guess on me as well. When he first approached me about this, I thought sure! It could be fun. I didn’t realize Ed was going to go completely hardcore on me with this documentary stuff. Holy Shit! When I first saw a semi finished version of [...]

Manuel Viloria talks a bit about it here.

At The Lopez Museum

Filed Under Filipino Artists, Philippine Comics, Video Blogs | 13 Comments

The Philippine Komiks talk at the Lopez Museum last Saturday afternoon went surprisingly well. I had stayed up the previous night preparing my slideshow and what I would be talking about. Then I had to wake up very early because I had a 9am class at Benilde. Saturday was pretty crazy, and I was about [...]
