Yes, after its marked absence last year, Summer
Kon is back, and will be held on April 16 at the Bayanihan Center on Pioneer,
just in time for.
Five!
New!
Issues!
The
‘Verse will be attending, and we sure hope to see all you mighty fine folk
there…
Debuting
at this year’s Summer Kon:
DAKILA: Metronom
Issues 2 & 3 (of 3)
By
David Hontiveros and Romnick Magbanua
Before
anything else…
First
DAKILA story arc to reach completion!
Yay,
us!
Now,
on to the road to compilation…
Ahem.
Your name is Brandon Ramirez and you’ve
been a geek your whole life: comics, movies, RPGs, cosplay.
And now you’re officially the world’s
first superhero, as evidenced by the cape, the mask, the totally ripped
physique, and those crazy-awesome powers.
Higher agencies seem to have conspired to
steer you right into that skintight outfit.
We have only one question: How’s that
working out for you?
There’s
been an angel murder, and an
attempted angel murder.
Who’s
on the case?
Gil
Grissom? Mac Taylor? Or (Heaven help us!) Horatio Caine?
Nuh-uh!
Dakila’s on the case!
Featuring
three characters previously seen in Tatsulok:
A Vision of Dust (though probably not the three you’re thinking of, plus
one of them looks a whole lot different
now).
Dakila. 18 years old. Cosmic champion.
All of a sudden, acne and getting a
driver’s license are so
not a big deal anymore.
DAKILA: Makadaot
Issue 1 (of 3)
By
David Hontiveros and Carl Corilla
Fatima
helps Demetrio out, and they both run into some trouble in Perdida.
Oh,
and Dakila shows up!
Wait.
Was
that a spoiler?
URIEL: Hekhalot
Issue 3B (of 4)
By
David Hontiveros and Michael Urbano
Uriel is a mighty arel, held in reverence and awe by his fellow arelim, feared and despised by the shedim hordes.
And right now, his fate and existence lie
in the hands of his seven-year-old mortal charge, Maleck de los Santos.
Uriel
has a throwdown with Malael in the diabul,
while, back in the oikoumene, the
good Doctor Perez goes totally nutballs!
PLUS!
For
some extra-‘Verse action…
BATHALA:
Apokalypsis
Issue 6B (of 7)
By
David Hontiveros and Ace Enriquez
What if there was only one superhuman in
the whole world?
What if the world was about to end as
predicted in the Book of Revelation?
What can one superman do to hold back the
hand of the Almighty?
Bathala
faces the savage baalim, and the cracks in the UP’s New World Order gradually
become visible.
Plus,
a new power! And (Gasp!) a new weakness!
PLUS
PLUS!
I’ve
received intel that there will also be a LOST JOURNAL presence at the Summer
Kon, so keep your eyes peeled for that, too. (Hopefully, you guys can stretch
your budgets so you can pick up some ‘Verse stuff and the LOST JOURNAL…)
And
there you go.
Hope
to see all you mighty fine folk at the Summer Kon!
And send
some good karma our way to help with the Metronom
compilation, which will be (as all ‘Verse compilations are meant to be)
remastered for a bigger page size, and should include some fresh backmatter!
you
can’t drink just six,
Dave
