Taking a Short Break

Filed Under Family, General, ORAS MO NA! | 5 Comments

Due to things happening at home, I’m once again sad to report that this week’s ORAS MO NA! will be delayed a week. Can’t be helped. I guess there’s just some things you want to put ahead of others. And this is one of those times.
By the way, new visitors to this site please click [...]

Just a Small ELMER Update

Filed Under Elmer, My Comics | 6 Comments

This is an entry in my daily online comic strip which I am posting here because it has something a bit to do with ELMER. Not really directly related, but significant to me personally.

My online strip is going strong three weeks running, and it has sort of evolved from the first time I did it, [...]

ELMER at Sketch Magazine #32

Filed Under Elmer, My Comics, Video Blogs | 1 Comment

A few months ago Sketch Magazine editor Bill Nichols got in touch with me about doing something for the magazine.

Attempting Online Comics on a Daily Basis

Filed Under Online Comics, Philippine Comics | 5 Comments

For many years I’ve resisted the idea of doing comics on the web while sporadically attempting it nevertheless.
