SAMPLE COPY ONLY
Got this text from Carl: This is insane. Dahil naaubos ang stock (ng ZSAZSA) sa megamall, binili ang sample copy. And it happened twice! Haaay!
Hahaha! Go Carl! Go!
Now, if we can only get our hands on ZSAZSA #2… kahit sample copy. (hint. hint.)
Carl has been texting me a page-by-page countdown of his progress. So, yes kids, we will get to read the second issue this month.
By the way, Ruey reviewed the first issue. Click here to read it.
WE HAVE LIFT OFF!
Went to Mango Comics’ DARNA launch.
I missed the Dancing Darna, which seemed to be the highlight of the show according to some the guys who were there.
I did get to see Epson Darna but didn’t get the chance to have my picture taken with her. (If you bought a copy of the comic book, you could have a digital picture taken with her and get a copy thanks to one of those nifty Epson printers.)
I also got to watch Softpillow Kisses, The Mongols, and Narda. I really, really liked Narda. Their CD is supposedly available at Sarabia Optical in U.P. Shopping Center. (Yup, you read that right.) Which makes me wonder if they’d be willing to sell copies of Batch72.
MUTUAL ADMIRATION SOCIETY
The launch also felt like a mini-comic book convention, which goes to show that our little comic book scene needs all the support that it can get.
Spent most of the evening at Gerry and Nil’s table. Nil didn’t introduce me to his girlfriend. (Guess he doesn’t want to be associated with us comic book geeks. he he he )
Eman and the other Blitz Kids were also there.
Saw Ner flirting with the Epson Darna. (Hey Ner! Did you show your wife the pictures?)
Later in the evening, bumped into James of Culture Crash and the Kubori Kikiam Guys, Taga-Ilog and David. They’ll be updating their site with some very interesting pictures from the launch. (Unfortunately, it doesn’t involve us and the Epson Darna.)
CHOCOLATE-EH? CHOCOLATE-AAAHHH!!!
Met up with office mates after the launch. Ended up at Bizzu, this new dessert place at Greenbelt 3 where I found that they have the best hot chocolate in Makati! It’s rich and thick and absolutely delicious.
Roach was about tell us about this scene in the opera “Luna: Spolarium” where the characters have a discussion about the different between tsokolate-eh and tsokolate-ah, but we all noticed that Max suddenly had this crazy smile on her face. We asked her why she was smiling.
She said, she had a funny story about hot chocolate.
I asked, “Does it involve sex?”
“Yes”, she laughed.
“Well, to hell with the Spolarium and national heroes,” said Roach, “tell us about it!”
“Isn’t it funny that when a guy asks you at 3 in the morning, `Do you want to have
coffee?`, you never actually see that coffee?”
To which, me and Belai replied, “Ummm… no. We actually do get to see THAT coffee.”
Max ignored us and continued, “One time, I told this guy that I already stopped drinking coffee and just drank hot chocolate. So he said, `Well I’m sure we’ll find some hot chocolate somewhere. ` “
No, they didn’t.
Anyway, after I finished my hot chocolate, the others still wanted to go out for a drink.
I went home.
So ended another episode of “Geek and the City”.
