Kid-Friendly Graphic Novels On My Shelf
Jul 16We’ve recently been cleaning the house. My wife is now 8 months pregnant and we’re expecting a baby boy soon. According to her doctor, she’ll be giving birth anytime within the last week of July or the first week of August. So the need to buy some baby stuff and prepare the house is increasing. While looking at my collection, I realized I had more than a few titles I wanted to share...
Sir Fartsalot Hunts The Booger
Feb 22I saw a copy at BookSale Dagupan (Nepo Mall, 3rd floor) as I dropped by last week. I’m sure anyone can easily guess what this book is all about. You can bet that this book, uh, stinks! Hahah!.. Anyway, I think I’m gonna try to look for this one again the next time I go and maybe pick it up just for fun Sir Fartsalot Hunts The Booger is written by Kevin...
Majarlica | Bayan ng Agimat
Sep 16Majarlica: Bayan ng Agimat has been in the works for a long time now and its nice it will finally be out. So far, I’ve really enjoyed the previews and I’m just happy this will be available at the stores soon. I hope to pick up a copy to the soonest when I get the chance! As much as I love spandex and superhero comics, its always great to get some fresh stuff from worlds of magic...

Mom’s Cancer by Brian Fies is one of the few non-superhero titles in my little stack of comics and trade paperbacks but I’d say anytime that its really worth every buck. Brian started doing these strips...
There’s A Fruitcake For Everybody
Apr 24Fruitcake was 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, I don’t think I could buy a copy even when I found one back then since I didn’t have any money. During...
Callwork
Nov 04As Komikon 2008 approaches, let me recommend this book to those who plan to attend the event. Callwork originally appeared in the pages of the Manila Bulletin each Sunday. Now, I’m really happy that Hazel - the creator and a good friend - was able to print a book version of the strips. This looks like a perfect Christmas gift for those that work for call centers so you better...
