There’s A Fruitca...

Fruitcake is a book I have always wanted to read. It was written by the Eraserheads and was released way back 1997. I was still in high school at the time. When I first heard about it, I tried several bookstores around the city but to no avail. I never found any. Truth be told,...

Walastik! (A Lastikman ...

While most, if not all, young people today only know Lastikman either from the Vic Sotto flick or the Vhong Navarro TV series, it is refreshing to get the chance to see the character again in the actual format where he was first introduced - that of a comicbook. I’m just glad...

Kalayaan #6...

This is a landmark issue. As can be seen on the cover, Gio Paredes‘ Kalayaan comics #6 is a crossover with Gener Pedrina’s iconic Pinoy superhero team, Sanduguan. Now dont make the mistake of thinking that this is just another superhero crossover story just for the sake...

Your Universe...

Aside from his unquestionable capability to come up with melodic, chart-topping pop songs, one of the things I admire the most about Rico Blanco is how he writes lyrics that are simply relatable (yes, there is such a word! heheh…). He’s really not just an exceptional songwriter...

There’s No Stoppi...

Its no secret for any comicbook enthusiast that the Philippines really has an unlimited number of great comicbook artists. Just check out some DeviantArt accounts and finding samples of what I’m saying shouldn’t really be difficult at all. We really have a lot of artists...

Kalayaan #1-4 Comics Re...

Having come across two positive reviews online (by Robin and Jaybhoi), I really had high expectations for Kalayaan comics. To be honest, however, reading all 4 issues didn’t actually meet those expectations - it exceeded it! Gio Paredes‘ Kalayaan comics was really quite...

Tropa #2 Review...

As awesome as the first issue was, Tropa komiks #2 is definitely something that gives you much, much more. In Tropa #1, we got to know the main characters first – in issue #2, that is where we got to know more about their motives and that is where the action actually takes place....

Tropa #1 Review...

Tropa komiks #1, as it turns out, is Sacred Mountain Publication’s first release - or as Gilbert Monsanto referred to it once, their “first baby”. As most readers would expect, this is indeed an ‘origin issue’ meaning it simply introduces the main characters...

Rambol #2 Review...

Gilbert Monsanto’s covers doesn’t just grab your attention – it holds your attention. In fact, it blows you away! Rambol # 2 really did that for me. Besides, what kind of Pinoy komiks fan could resist a cover with Biotrog going head-to-head against X-Trooper anyway? We didn’t...

Popsicle...

These are the days when I am just so thankful that we still have a cassette player at home. Several days ago, an office buddy lent me a tape of this self-titled album from a Swedish band called Popsicle. Now, I don’t know if anybody out there still remembers this album (released...
