The complete first issue of SKYWORLD. http://komix7107.blogspot.com/2009/11/skyworld-apocrypha.html Preview pages of THE FILIPINO HEROES LEAGUE. http://komix7107.blogspot.com/2009/11/filipino-heroes-league-preview-pages.html The complete story of THE LAST DATU, a project that me and Kajo worked on before Trese http://komix7107.blogspot.com/2009/11/last-datu-lawanas-story.html We have a lot of stories to tell. Give them a read. Tell us what you think. Come back for more! KOMIX 7107 is a launch pad We hope that the stories we tell in this site will take flight; that the creators of these stories be inspired to keep writing and drawing and that their works find new readers out there. We hope to tell, not just 1,001 stories, but to tell 7,107 tales. And just in case we do reach that seemingly impossible number, we’d like to tell 7,107 more. KOMIX 7107 is a laboratory This is also the placed where we’ll also try...

The Universe was created in seven days. It took Ian and Mervin two years to finish this corner of Skyworld. Let us all pray to Bathala that it doesn’t take them another two years to finish the third and last book of this epic tale. I must emphasize that the creation of this tome required the summoning of god-like powers; wherein time was carved out of their impossibly busy workdays. Like heroes on some noble quest, there were days (and nights) when they had to forego sleep just to reach their destination. And I must say, the two years was worth the wait. And let us all pray to Bathala that … oh wait, I already said that. Of course, this issue holds a special place in my heart since this is the first time Trese and the Kambal crossed-over to another graphic novel. As kids, we’d have a geekgasm whenever superheroes from different teams would team-up. And our heads would just explode when Marvel and DC finally started doing company-wide-cross-overs. So, it was during one of those drunken ...

The great thing about having insomnia the day before a big event is that at least you’re awake to get to the event on time. With only two hours sleep, I actually got to the UP Bahay ng Alumni at 9am. (Kajo didn’t sleep at all and arrived a couple of minutes after I got there.) Before we set up at the Visprint table, I asked Syeri if we could give away some Alamat comic books (as a way to commemorate 14 years of Alamat Comics). She said yes and I brought down four boxes (14 years worth of unsold Alamat Comics) and said they could give it away to everyone who came to the Komikon. (Well, it wasn’t really 14 years of unsold comics, more like 4 years worth. We gave away copies of Batch72, Indigo Valley, Tattooed, TKS:The Kill Stalker, 3 copies of ARCHON, 2 copies of EXODUS, and a partridge in a pair tree.) An hour or so later, we were set-up at the Visprint table and Team Skyworld (with Ian, Mervin, and Shali) was set-up at the Alamat table. They were joined by Paolo Fabregas, who has a sne...

Well, you heard the lady, see you all at the KOMIKON, this Saturday, Nov22, at the UP Bahay ng Alumni. At the Visprint table, we’ll have the two TRESE books available, as well as a free poster for everyone who buys a copy. I believe Manix Abrera will also be there with his KIKOMACHINE books (Asteeeg!) and Freely Abrigo with his KULAS compilations (kulet!!!). I think we’ll also have copies of ZSAZSA ZATURNNAH and the PENUMBRA horror novellas as well. Right beside the Visprint table will be the Alamat Comics table, where you can get copies of THE LAST DATU (my first collaboration with Kajo), as well as KADILIMAN by David Hontiveros and Edgar Tadeo. Also available will be SKYWORLD: APOCRYPHA and the ashcan/sneak preview of SKYWORLD: BOOK 2 by Mervin Ignacio and Ian Sta. Maria. Actually, you can already see a preview of at the art at: iantoy.deviantart.com Once again, we’ll be sharing the table with Reno Maniquis who will have copies of MASKARADO ready for anyone who hasn’t gotten on board...
