Thank You from my Secret Santa (Ninong) at Indie Komix Manila

KRISISmas is here! and here is an art given to me by my secret santa (ninong) from Indie Komiks Manila, David Jerickson Serador . And with the colors it looks so badass, which makes Kidlat a hero of his kind.

Also working on my Inaanak's gift art and will post it later. Be on the lookout for the Grand Krisismas Art with all of the characters of Krisis Komix as it now expands into more comics and more characters. 

Again thank you for all the support for Krisis! Komix and Have a very merry KRISISmas to all of you!

The POWER to Help Is In Your Hands

Let's help our kababayans affected by the recent Typhoon Sendong that has plagued the Northern Mindanao and the cities of Iligan, Cagayan de Oro and Dumagete City. Like Zsazsa Zaturnah, anyone can be a superhero with a donation via your prepaid/postpaid load. Follow the instructions in which proceeds will be used by the Red Cross of the Philippines for relief and rescue operations. 

The death toll is now rising and there is also a great number of properties destroyed in its wake.  Let's do our part in helping them especially this season of Christmas and the new year where they faced a great tragedy. We at Krisis Komix, are praying for recovery for the affected towns and cities.

We thank Carlo Vergara (creator of Zsazsa Zaturnah) for making this poster to encourage more people to get involved and share!
