Mukat Comics|Comics Review
Jul 29Some comic book artists may have improved so much they want to bury their past works as if in shame. You don’t expect the same from Mel Casipit.

A curriculum that includes “Harnessing your Evil Potential.” A mummy girl who dreams of roses, unicorns and romance. Two skull-masked boys who won’t hesitate hurting you once you mess up with their mom. A “staged” battle between a hero and his longtime nemesis. Simply put: “What’s not to love,...
