SUMMER KOMIKON

This is soooooooooooooooo awesomely great! I can say I am now officially a human!!! (Tao nako!) I have recently attended the KOMIKON SUMMER FIESTA at the Bahay ng Alumni in UP Diliman last May 16, 2009. It is a gathering of many comic book enthusiasts, indie and pro artists! I'm so glad I attended the event, now I know that I'm not the only childish errrrr child-like person in this side of the planet! Marami kame! hehehehe :D This is my first time to attend such event. I met many new friends! Here are some pictures I got. Let me share them: I met the sweet couple Myke Guisinga and Robin Rivero. Ate Robin also signed my Old Questor Magazines! Sweeeeeet!!! Finally I am faceto face with one of my idols! Kalayaan Comics creator Sir Gio Paredes! Gave him a bibingkang duman, I just don't know if he shared it with the rest of the gang! hehehehe! Peace sir Gio! Then Sir Gio introduced me to Kalayaan's upcoming guest artist, the astiging Erwin Ropa! He let me browse his portfolio, and man, I was in awe! Wow! I'm in awe! It's Sir Gerry Alanguilan of Superman: Birthright, Wasted and Elmer! I bought his ELMER Comic book and had it signed! This is really awesome! I get to meet my coloring sensei! The fantastic comic book colorist Omi Remalante! Oh my Gulay! It's Sarge in the flesh!!! It's Sir Gilbert Monsanto signing my Bayan Knights copies! With him is his lovely wife Ma'am Glenda Monsanto. Isn't that Bossing Ner Pedrina of Sanduguan??? Asteeeeeeeeeeeegg! I also had the chance to meet other "eccentric" pips like the ever Sexy Aaron Felizmenio (Gwapoman, last guy from left) and Wan Mananita (Morion, Unos Mundos, besides Aaron). Beside me is Myke Guisinga (Claw) This time around with the Creator of Manila Man, Rhiver Quilantang! (middle of Wan and Me) sitted is Ms. Robin Rivero. Finally! We met (thatione?), let me introduce my partner in crime, the legendary (isa siyang alamat) Teardrop (He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named hehehe :D). I had to meet other people from the Komikon but didn't have the chance to be pictured with them... Thanks for the company guys! And now some pics with my beloved partner, Grace. Still I have still so many DA friends that I haven't met... Anyway, there are other Komikons to attend! I have been to the Komikon... now I'm a believer!!!
