It was nice meeting Rence during the Komikon. Hey! You didn't tell me you're selling komiks too!

Komikon Summer Fiesta 2009

I didn't expect the Summer Komikon to be crowded. It may not be as crowded as the November Komikon but I was surprised there are a lot of people including students having money to spend during the summer vacation. I initially brought 60 copies of Callwork: A Call Center Life. Good thing Oliver added 15 more Callwork books for me to sell. Sold 61 copies and packed up around 7 pm. Good sales considering it's the 2nd time around for the book in Komikon.

Me, Andrew Villar and his son, Stong Franco, Greco Milambiling and Freely Abrigo was at the SKP table. Then came Jockey, who was good at selling, who helped out with the SKP table. Also met the new SKP member who went all the way from Bicol. Norman Isaac also showed up during the event. Met my DeviantArt and blogger friends for the first time: Pilar Esber, Izketz, Wan, Omi, Borgy, Offshore241, Aaronturon, Ian Walter Along, John Becaro, Mukatmanako, Myke and Robin, Jonas Diego, Lyndon Gregorio, KC Cordero, Nerp, Subway Production, M3 group and Gerry A. Then drunken Julius Villanueva arrived and helped with the booth. Thanks Borgy for the sketch card! One indie that caught my attention is "The girl who turned into a fish". Very nicely done. Kudos to the artist. Also pushing Pilar to do more Yaoi comics. Lolz. Thanks also to Ariel Atienza and the Artist Den pips, Micheal David, Joanah Tinio, Syeri Baet, Manix Abrera, and most of all special thanks to the people who came from the following call centers: Etelecare, Convergys, Alorica, JP Morgan, Teleperformance and former call center agents.

Free Comic Book Day tomorrow, Summer Komikon

Free comics! Tomorrow, May 2 Sat. in Comic Odyssey Robinsons Galleria and in Druid's Keep in Magallanes Gateway. Meet the great artists from 1-4 pm. I'm not yet sure if I will make it. Pretty sure it will be super crowded in there. Also, some co-workers planned a swimming tomorrow in Laguna. Then I also need to drop by to Manila Bulletin to get my six or seven months worth of paycheck. I only go there twice a year to save my time from getting these small checks. Another thing, my mom came home from US and was asking me to go with her to Duty Free. Good thing I'm on leave today. (yes it's a holiday and I still filed a leave) I won't be sleepy on Saturday whole day!

Komikon is here once again! Don't forget the date, May 16 Sat. at the UP Bahay ng Alumni Diliman QC. 10am-7pm.

I decided to cancel my vacation trip first to the US this June because of the "swine flu" that has been going on. I'm also looking forward to the Manila Comic Convention this Aug. 8-9 in SM Megamall. Got in for the indie go! valley.
