WHO IS/ARE SILENT SANCTUM MANGA?

Silent Sanctum Manga originally were DARK CHAPEL, WACKY RODENT, BEACH HEAD and YUI OOKAMI.
The group was founded by both DARK CHAPEL & WACKY RODENT.
Additional rosters came in after the "INVASION ARC" that took place in SSM! ISSUE #4.
Newly acquired talents would include FRINKSTER, "the king", SAP GREEN, HACHI and regulars
like TRITANOCH and the very famous MICHAEL "KANAL" DAVID.












The roster is not limited by the 8 members alone for every issue would feature
a host of guest artistses and even a few artistses from abroad.

WHEN & WHERE DID SILENT SANCTUM MANGA became SILENT SANCTUM MANGA? (redundancy kills!)

DARK CHAPEL and WACKY RODENT knew each other after a small conversation that was made about a hit 90's NICKELODEON classic,ROCKO'S MODERN LIFE and after conversing(in full details)
about the ever notorious episode entitled "WACKY DELLY",the group was formed just like that.
With two members and back then without a name.The group looked more like a club than a
mob.They would soon enough find two more artist of the same interest,BEACH HEAD and YUI OOKAMI
were later on added to the group and which was still called ARCANE SANCTUM.

Silent Sanctum Manga became SILENT SANCTUM MANGA in the confines of the newly built BEATO ANGELICO
BUILDING
in UST (University Of Santo Tomas) RM 801,on an afternoon class (COMPO 2by SIR BONG C. DUCAT).The group was strongly motivated by the "GET PUBLISHED AD"
that was running back then on the comic book,CULTURE CRASH! More than the exposure,the
group was also enticed by the fact that getting published would also mean that they were
gonna get paid in cold hard cash.Something they cherished dearly since ART SCHOOL won't pay
themselves and canvases were eating huge chunks of their own allowance money.

The project was discontinued due to the fact that the people involved back then were
still too busy with school load and the early absence of YUI OOKAMI had left the group
pursuing other things.The manga was put on hold up untill everyone has graduated.
Fast forwarding to 2006.After joining an event entitled KOMIKON 2006.

The group got motivated and tried their darnest to draw,create,etc. a book good enough to
join KOMIKON 2007.
Thus SSM! ISSUE 1 was born.

WHY SILENT SANCTUM MANGA?
Because,quite frankly....WHY THE HELL NOT?From BLACK ARCANE to ARCANE SANCTUM.The group was immediately drawn to the word
SANCTUM and basically brainstormed a bunch of names up untill the name SILENT came abound
and what happened was pure MAGIC!

WHAT IS THAT THING YOU CALL A MASCOT OF A LOGO?THE ONE THAT LOOKS LIKE A BAG OF BONES?

Well quite frankly you have no idea how right you are on describing him as a bag of bones.
MALNOURISHED bag of bones would've been more acceptable,but your close enough.
Coz that mascot of a logo is called LOLO DEADHEAD(GRANDFATHER DEADHEAD)








And we usually show him in two ways.
THE DEAD



& THE ALIVE
(which we have a lot more pictures of apparently)
















Both ways similarly  good,it's just a matter of taste and opinion.
Lolo Deadhead symbolizes the company and artistses being BEYOND HUMAN.A state where
you are all about the art.This is where you leave your reality shoes and try to step in
to the cumphy slippers of SILENT SANCTUM MANGA.Leaving all your wordly and man made constraints
and stepping on to a world,our world to be exact.THE HOLY OF THE HOLIES so to speak.

HOW CAN I PURCHASE A COPY OF THIS INFERNAL BOOK?

That's easy!First and foremost you could try the two shops that were mentioned above.
SPUTNIK COMICS and COMIC ODYSSEY.But if you would trully wish to know the people behind
the avatars you would just had to join them in various comic book and book related
conventions that are happening all year long around the metro.
Or you could contact them and purchase a copy directly from them.(Metro Manila,Philippine area only)

Cellphone : 09196050009
E-mail : silent_sanctum@yahoo.com

They'd be more than happy to be of service to you.

HOW MUCH DOES A SILENT SANCTUM MANGA COST?

Currently it is priced @ PHP55.00.
Prices might only vary depending on the economic status of the country.
HOW MUCH OF THIS INFORMATION IS REAL?
EVERYTHING is true down to the last punctuation marks.The members of SILENT SANCTUM MANGA
would strictly tell you the TRUTH and NOTHING but the TRUTH.'Coz lying would make JESUS
CHRIST cry...and a crying god is the last thing SILENT SANCTUM MANGA would want on their
resume.

and now we're done introducing ourselves.
Y'all could just....
