Visited my late father and mother , prayed for their souls and asked them to help us in times of need, they never let us down as we face our daily obstacles in life...salamat tatay and nanay.
We miss you so much....
Watched the Legend of the Guardians in 3D , owls everywhere, awesome piece of animation. We let our piglets, Tsobe and Bukoy, play at Time zone while me and my wife sip coffee at this awesome shop where we met Pu , the comedianne?
As for Moon Knight, it was a test of professionalism, aside from the first pager centerspread, i have to work on a battle that happens in , of all places, Louisiana Mardi Gras, i've counted at least 781 people all in all as our hero tries to outwit his fallen brother in acquiring the elusive Sapphire Crescent which said to help them , along with team Avengers, in toppling down the demon of Shadowland via Daredevil..
It was also a test for being in the comics business for years, of not being a SLACKER and do what you have to do, all for that dreaded deadline.
And for that, a 22 pager issue that takes me only 19 days, i narrowly missed my deadline...whew.
Take a look and you'll know what i mean...
A former colleague of mine , a writer from atlas publishing, visited my humble abode and asked me if i can make him a custom toy as a present, no problem. We reminisced the good all days, the truly komikeros, where a 150 pesos script is enough for us to be happy , and if someone had no dinero, we chip in, it was truly a comrade in arms thing and i'm glad i was a part of it even though i was the only illustrator in the circle of writers...but hey, I have 4 novels and series in my name as a writer both in Atlas and Rex Publishing. Man, it was a peak of ingenuity....
Some are gone...and some remains....wish we can be truly together again , maybe in a reunion?
