My Top Picks Must-have for Indieket 2013 part 2

Dahil papalapit na ang Komikon Indieket, gumawa ako ng aking top picks (in no particular order) na everyone should have sa Komiks collection nila na would most likely be available on Indieket



Zombinoy #1 - 4
Genre:  Comedy/Horror
Age Rating:  Mature
Creators:  Geonard Yleana/Carlo Cruz/ Sid Santos/Dennies Layante
Pelikomiks Studios
Price:  100 pesos each

Standard comic book size, high quality printing, 28 pages, 100 pesos each lang, sulit na sulit. 

Hindi ito typical zombie-invasion story.  What if sa Pinas ang setting, handa na ba ang gobyerno sa mga kanitong sakuna, may kakayahan ba ang mga ekspertong pinoy para mapuksa ang ganitong virus, ano ang magiging papel ng mga ordinaryong mamamayan o mananatili lang ba silang mga biktima?... paano nga kaya?   Dyan nagtagumpay ang Pelikomiks, nagawa nilang pinoy na pinoy ang kwento, talagang nasalamin ang kalagayan ng ating bansa.................... ikaw, handa ka na ba sa mga ganitong Komiks?



Drop Dead Dangerous
Genre:  Horror/Action
Creators:  Chad Cabrera/Mike Banting
Old habits die hard... particularly for a notorious serial killer known as "The Raven" who has seemingly come back from the dead to exact his vengeance.  Old wounds reopen and it's up to a wayward detective and his newfound partner to uncover the murderer's identitiy--- before the corpses pile up between them and the truth.
Maraming intriga ang bumabalot sa pagkatao ng mga main character.  Mga lihim na unti-unting nabibigyan ng paliwanag.  Nakakainip ang next issue.  Haha.  Talaga namang nakakabitin at kapanapanabik kung ano na ang magyayari sa kwento ng mga bidang detective.

Madugo ang komiks toh; brutal ang fight-scenes.  May chick na may malaking Melon; nakakatakot.  May love story rin; posible kayang may love-triangle?  hmmm.  Samahan nyo nalang akong subaybayan ang Drop Dead Dangerous.
Drop Dead Dangerous #3.     COMING SOON







The Land of the Guardians/On Lighter Dreams
Genre:  Adventure/Fantasy
Story and Art:  Carlo Jose San Juan, MD

Rianne Nicah was a medical student who woke up one morning to find a talking duck in her kitchen.

He introduced himself as Cal Duck, her guardian duck, and explained that she was his charge.  His duty was to protect and guide her through life to helf her become the best person she could be....

Join Rianne and her friends as she continues to brave the world....      .......even one not her own...
Tong komiks na to ay especially recommended by my partner-in-crime Mark Rosario.  Bihira lang, pero whenever may suggestion sya, I know, it is worth to read.  Tama sya, this is so good na you would like others to read it too.  Isa to sa mga paborito kong dinadala sa office, and if may gusto humiram, go, sige lang, these kind of books deserved to be shared.  Very inspiring.  Kahit sa preface o foreword palang, nakakagaan na ng pakiramdam.  Be inspired.........


Ambush Omnibus
Genre:  Action Comedy
Age Rating:  8 and up
Creator:  Andrew Villar with a cover by Rod Espinosa
Price:  250 pesos
CoRe Studios
This Ultimate Ambush Comics Omnibus definitely has it all; Secret agents, slime guns, military action, sexy women, parent searching, girl on girl fights, guest stars, clones and the  beach!.  This book contains 200+ comic strips and additional new strips.  Be AMBUSED like never before.
Para sa mga katulad ko na hindi nasubaybayan ang Ambush from the start; eto ang para sa atin, pede na natin mabasa ang kwento ni Amber in one-seating.  Ang adventure nya with Planet Opdi Eyps.  Ang team-ups nya with other local comic characters, like Kulas, Wang, Quipino, Zeke, Alexandra Treses, Zsa Zsa Zaturnnah etc.  Panalo rin yung mga reference sa Star Wars, G.I. Joe, 300, Twilight, Transformers.  Daming surprises sa book na toh.  Hinding hindi ka magsasawa basahin.

Here's a big early-bird Ambush promo.  Now may reason ka na pumunta ng maaga sa event.




We can also buy Komikon Indieket advance tickets at Comic Odyssey para there no need na pumila sa tickets sa venue.

So kitakits sa Bayanihan Center August 10, 2013.  Tara na at tangkilikin ang mga astiging comics na gawang pinoy.
