KOMIKS!
sa dami hindi ko mapicturan ng maayos.... hehehe
all the binded books...
and the indie books...
Ayun, matapos ang ilang araw pagkatapos ng komikon... syempre finals muna inintindi ko... pero hindi ko maiwasan na bumasa ng komiks pampatangal ng stress. Good luck naman kaya kung ang sagot ko sa tanong sa test ay Pugad Baboy...XD. Well one more minor test to go and I think this is the best time to share the komiks that I have read.
Therefore I declare a COMIC REVIEW WEEK!
Eto ang imbentaryo ko sa nahakot kong komiks...
- Ang Alamat ng Panget and Many Others ni Apol Sta. Maria
- EDSA ni Mel Casipit
- Baboy ni Mel Casipit
- Kapitan Tog 2 by Freely Abrigo

- Yoghi Manga by BATIS (libre siya in fairness pero sana nagbigay ako ng kahit kaunting donation... pero cute nito pramis)
- Where Bold Stars Go To Die by Gerry Alanguilan
Ang tange ko lang hindi ako nakabili ng trese na matagal ko nang gustong bilhin... pero mayroon naman sa National bookstore di ba... yun lang walang pirma ng creators... Also from out of the shadows, Sir Julius Villanueva appeared to us LiP fans and had a little chat. And with those, it made my day...
So lets get it on with the first komik on review!
EDSA
by Randy Valiente and Mel Casipit

This comic is my favorite among the ones i bought from komikon 2009. I actually saw this one from the komikon summer fiesta but was unable to buy one. However this time I was able to get my hands on one and here is what I can say about it. Of course we know EDSA, not just the highway but also the event that happened that ousted the presidents of the country. The plot shows the same situation, poverty, corruption, power-struggle and the pursuit of hope. The protagonist is Piolo (nope, not the moviestar) which was part of the resistance. As turmoil rises among the presidency versus the opposition and other forces, Piolo also mad his move every night, which his wife doesn't know until one day. The statue of our lady of EDSA plays a special role in the plot, which surprized me. And at the end, you will encounter a very familiar scene, and what I felt was the quote "history repreats itself" lingering in my head.
