Our Kuro Saku OCT KOMIKET 2017 Experience - Komiks, Poetry & Art!

We attended last weekend's October Komiket 2017
The Filipino Komiks and Art Market!
(October 14 -15, 2017)

Dark / Bloom
 

We have a lot of new comics released, along with our other existing comics, and poetry books plus art postcards, stickers and also art advice to fellow aspiring comic book artists! :)

Here's our line up of our self published comics! :)

 And of course, here are our comic book enthusiasts who supported and bought our books!



Thank you Jeff sa pagsupporta! :D


We also released the second chapter of Delivery Boys! Delivery Boys Chapter 2 is where the bike joust action starts. And what's more it was well received by people that we ran out of copies of issue #1 the first day and we had to reprint it along with the second one! 


And even on the second day, Delivery Boys Chapter 1 was sold out and Chapter 2 with only two left after the event! Thanks to everyone who supported Delivery Boys! I promise to make it better and better every succeeding chapter. :)


Here are more patrons who have come back to buy more of our works,
and some new ones as well.


We know you'll love that new chapter of Delivey Boys, Noel!
Thank you so much for your support! :)



Thank you so much for buying our works Andrew! :)


You won't regret buying the Delivery Boys tandem and of course
Guadix's work as well Jiro. We thank you for your endless support! :)

Thank you so much sir Andrei! We know you'll like the second chapter of DB and
you will love Da-ib too as well. Until next time sir, it was always good to chat
about comics and other stuff with you! :)







Congrats to my wife Guadix in releasing her third issue of Da-ib! <3

Da-ib is a story about a group of friends, kids who live in a world almost filled
with water and the adventure they embark after rescuing a mysterious girl
hunted by the authorities.

An avid reader of ours Ian bought the first two chapters of Da-ib
from the previous comics convention and she's happy to get the 3rd issue
of Da-ib along with Delivery Boys chapter 2! :)

Happy wife! <3 :)

We also made stickers of our Clowder and Da-ib characters!
More to come next time!


Thanks for dropping by and for the support guys! :D





My friend since college Ben dropped by and also
gave me a comic book of his, YOLO!
YOLO by Benedict Reyna






You guys should try to read this one when you get the chance to see it. It's a simple story and one of most innovative comic book tricks someone has done so far. It's art!! I really loved this one especially the drawings, it has a holy/unholy feel to it, which is a good thing. You just have to read it for yourself to experience what I'm talking about! :)







 Here are more of our friends and new buyers who purchased our works. Thank you guys!! :D

It was nice to see you Mitzee! Thank you for your support!
We hope to see you on the next comics convention and
get your new works! :D






We're glad you like Clowder so much Jaqui!
We hope to see you at the next comics convention!
And your artworks and stickers are awesome as well!
We really liked them and I think my wife wants them
cat stickers all for herself  hahahaa! :D



Thank you for the books Reginald and Magsi!
Magsi is the writer of Bridge,
an indie comic book based on the life of Pinoy Bands!





















Thank you for dropping by our table sir Dex! We hope that you have a great journey with your art!
Your words back then inspired me to keep on writing, I hope I can do the same to inspire you as well! :)




Thank you for dropping by and still supporting us with
our books Raine!! I hope you and your brother like what new
stories we have now. :) See you guys again!




Thank you for dropping by Carla!!
I hope you enjoy those dark and dreaming books
of The Black Book Trilogy!

Happy to finally release Satan High Chapter 10~!! :D
I also released the 10th Chapter of Satan High! It's an intense battle in Hell Cage and also half of Satan's classmates along with him barely alive traverse the hallways of Satan High going to the clinic only to be ambushed by... PIGS?!

Here's the special Chapter X cover of Satan High!
Only a limited release so get yours now! >:)

Here's the actual cover of Satan High 10!

That chandelier is so fucking beautiful. :)


Happy wifey! :)


Da-ib Chapters 1 - 3
Congrats Guadix! <3 :)
Here's a detail of what genres we have at our table :)

Clowder
You might be wondering what these two books are by now, well they're poetry books by yours truly entitled Bunshin! They are a collection of poems, each book has 30 poems inside and the Blue Bunshin is all Tagalog poems while the Pink Bunshin is all English poems. 

Bunshin
They are not translations mind you, each book has a different poem because sometimes, there are poems that are better spoken or written or read in our mother tongue and some are great to write and read in English. I hope I can share this with more people who love and read and write their own poems! :)


Delivery Boys

Satan High








Our Komiket neighbor Maura asked us to trade some of our stuff with what they have. They are from the group Kuwit, a group from The Philippine High School of the Arts and they traded me this gem, The Kindred. I have not yet read it but man, look at that art for the cover!! It was made by Julia Elisha Tan and inside are a lot of works by different artists and writers. Go find this book at the next comics convention and support them! :)




 Our friend Yukihiru and her friend Roxette Magat created their first books, Pure Soul and The Lone Flower Through a Storm respectively. They are fairly new to the scene, but both of the shows tremendous promise. They still have a long way to to in terms of perfecting their craft as I've seen browsing their works, but they are already past the hardest part; starting.

They only need to keep it up, improve some more and tell their stories that they feel need to be heard and read by people and their all set. Like I always say to people who are starting or wanting to start their own comics;

"It's not easy to start your own comic book with your own story, but it's also not impossible."




This is the freebie community comics made by our fellow comic book
artists participating at Komiket. The cover was done by our friend Ardie Aquino!
It's a friggin' awesome cover if you ask me! :D
Congrats Ardie and the rest of the contributors in the book,
hopefully we can join you guys next year! :)

Okay if you see this at a comics convention, BUY IT!!
It's done by Pancho Karambola and man, does his works make me laugh!
I've already said enough, just buy this
goddamn awesome thing and you won't regret it! :D


"De Profundis" is a comic book consists of many artists and
their group is called Komikids.
My wife says that it was a good read and there are a lot of
interesting short  stories in this anthology book.
And just look at that cover! :D


Here are some stickers we got along with some bookmarks and cards
from our new friends from Komiket! :3

Me tired and in need of a good night's sleep after being up
for at least 4 days. :)

But it's all good and worth it when you are with someone you love
doing what you love. You will truly excel and bring others up with you!
:) <3 :P

And now a well deserved treat!
What else could be fitting after creating manga, and talking to
anime and comic book lovers than a Japanese dinner.

That's all folks! We'll be savoring this blessed meal now! :D :)

Ittadakimasu~!! PART 2!! ^_^  <3 ^_^
