2018 NOVEMBER KOMIKON ANNOUNCEMENT #3


We're four weeks out from this year's November Komikon (November 17 & 18), and look!
Announcement number three!

DISCOUNTED COMPILATION

TATSULOK: A Vision of Dust Compilation
David Hontiveros / Xerx Javier


In the many rooms of the House that is the World, there are arelim and shedim. Most men know them as angels and demons.

Three individuals, each related to one race or the other, converge on the stage of Holy Week, 2009, for their own collective Passion Play of transformation and acceptance.

Collecting issues 1 to 4, this is a remastered TATSULOK: AVoD.
The page size is bigger than the previously released singles, which means, more art, because:

A)    You’ll get to see the art at a larger size; and
B)    With the captions and word balloons staying the same size, less of the art is now covered by those pesky, pesky words

And a limited number of copies will be available at NovKon at the discounted price of 200 pesos!

So, yeah!
Freebies!
A new release!
And discounts!

There you go.
Set the dates: November 17 & 18, at the Bayanihan Center on Pioneer.
Look for me (and the freebies and the new comic book release and the discounted compilation) at the Visprint booth!

And, while we're all here, I'd also like to announce:
ARTIST ALERT!

If you're an artist (or know one) who's interested in collaborating, then we'd absolutely love to hear from you.
If you're dropping by NovKon, then make sure and bring some samples to the Visprint booth, drop them in front of me, and we'll see what there is to be seen. (This is how at least one of the artists I'm currently collaborating with got on board the 'Verse train.)
Or, you can email us at verse.comics@gmail.com. (Subject Heading: ARTIST ALERT)

Please keep in mind though, this is not a paying/salaried/page-rated job.
As per the long standing Alamat tradition, the only possible financial compensation will come from royalties from sales, once the completed comics are published.
(Which is a whole other can of worms that needs to eventually be opened, but of course, the comics need to be completed first.)
This is primarily about our love of the comic book medium, and contributing to that medium what are, hopefully, stories of substance.
With lots of punching!

So, again, if you're an artist who wants to help keep the 'Verse train on track, then we can't wait to hear from you!

And come on back to the Iguana to check for any new NovKon announcements every now and then.
And please also feel free to spread a link to this post around, so we can get the word out.

Hope to see all you mighty fine folk at NovKon!

you can’t drink just six,

Dave
