Super successful launch, the place was packed with 70-100 people approx! Ive been to 3-4 other launches and this is by far the most attended! Kudos to Budjette Tan and Kajo Baldisimo :D

Ang bilis naman ni Deathwalker! I don't want to read your review yet because I haven't even opened my copy of Trese 4 yet, but will check it once i'm finished!

Sayang hindi ka namin nakita ni Wanda!

Wanda,
I have a copy of Elmer, but I haven't read it yet. It recently won in France, and has gotten great reviews from people like Neil Gaiman!

I think Gerry's ELMER is nominated pa lang sa France for Best Comic Book of The Year but hopefully sana nga manalo since it already earned the Best Asian Album category. His chances are good...

The coming launch is the release of a new edition. If you want to explore Gerry's works, better start it with WASTED. There's a free e-book/pdf copy online you can download here: http://alanguilan.com/sanpablo/wasted/wasted.pdf ---this is still, his best work (in my opinion) and his most personal story. Recommended for Mature Readers only though.

Support the Filipino Artist! ;)
