Shortlisted Interview #14: Kathryn Layno
Jun 01Although primarily a male-dominated industry, avid readers know that there are quite a number of fantastic female comic creators in the world today. On the top of my mind, I can mention Kelly Sue De Connick (current Captain Marvel writer) and Sara Picheli (artist of Ultimate Spider-Man). When C.B. Cebulski visited the country for a nationwide Marvel talent search, a girl caught his eyes (in an...
Shortlisted Interview #13: Bryan Sevilla
May 29Welcome me back, my little blog! I’ve been out of circulation for some time due to some work stuff and after helping out a bit with two Summer Komikon releases (namely Heart of the Black Matrix #1 and Bayan Knights: Nursery) and so these interviews had to take the back seat for a while. To the artists who have already sent their answers, please bear with me. To fellow comic fans waiting...

This time, allow me to introduce you to a dude from Cebu who Cebulski found impressive enough. His name is Michael Punsalan and I’m sure you want to know more about him now. Let’s not keep this intro long then! Mark Rosario: Tell us something about...
The Avengers Movie Review (What Rocked and What Sucked)
May 04As promised, here goes a movie review for The Avengers. For this blog entry, I’ve brought a buddy along with me: Donne Celadina or DCEL as we fondly refer to him. I’ve been a longtime fan of his comic reviews over at Random Rants (Heck! The guy’s been writing reviews before I even started blogging!) and so it’s fun to do this with him. Anyway, I’m thinking everyone has seen The Avengers...
Shortlisted Interview #10: Jerico Ray Marte
Apr 27I never understood how overwhelming it was to try featuring all the 34 Filipino artists who made it to Marvel and National Book Store‘s Be The Next Comic Marvel until I gave it a try. This post marks the 10th interview I’ve had since I started this and so I officially now have only 24 more to go. Haha! Anyway, let’s get to know Cavite-based Jerico Ray Marte for today! Mark...
