This video is actually a school project by students of De La Salle University in Dasmariñas, Cavite. They interviewed me, along with many other comic book people in 2006 for this project.

I want to thank the organizers of yesterday’s Renaissance event, all the artists gave their time to do sketches, Leinil Francis Yu, and all the people who came and supported us. It was completely unexpected that the money generated from the sketches, as well as Leinil’s sketchbooks and original artwork, was eventually donated towards the [...]

This is a video I made a few years ago. I had to take it off You Tube because they noted it for using copyrighted material. But I think it still plays fine on Multiply. I never got around to updating it, so here’s the video as it appeared in 2006.
