Homiekon 2023

This post was supposed to be uploaded at https://buhayindiekomiks.blogspot.com/
But our own site is fine as well.
Everywhere's fine, actually!

Entry #72

Komikon Homekoming (Apr 22)is right around the corner hence we could
safely say that this week is "Komikon Week". This marks as the second
(with the first being Komikeria) live Komikon event ever since the pandemic.

To avoid the Komikon rush, we had our books printedyes, that's not a typo and not a prank, we really do have a new book out) in advance.
The following prep pics were taken from March 24, 2023.
There was supposed to be another YZA

at Visayas Avenue(which is closer to where I live)
but we've never been there before and I don't feel like risking our very few rest days
exploring my immediate surroundings under the rather unforgiving hot summer sun.

We just went with the one in:


And truth be told, there weren't that many people in that branch.
Just a few folks having their calling cards, invitations, and thesis printed.
Being early really does have its benefits. But even by doing so, I  was still advised that our books wouldn't be finished up until tomorrow. I said "I was willing to wait". I was given a proof/dummy for approval and everything was in order. Hence, the printing of our book was both a miracle as it was a favor. I was told to come back around 4:00 to 4:30 pm.

So we did what any normal person having their books printed would do.
We waited...patiently!


We had our meal(Haha, nabawasan ko na. Nakalimutan kong pipicturan ko pa nga pala!)
and explored our immediate Katipunan surroundings.Because why the hell not?


Ang daming butas sa sidewalk!!!!

Ano nga bang purpose nito????

We came back at 4:00 and lo behold everything's wrapped neatly and ready to be taken home.


We do all our repackings (for both komiks and stickers) at night. Hence the lighting might not be the best in the following pictures.
There are a total of 4 variants to collect.

Every issue comes with 3-4 stickers.

And the few lucky bastards get these 3-4 big ass stickers.

And now, here's a side-by-side comparison for scale purposes.

Again, these books are to be sold exclusively together with Ghost Neo 

at the Happy Lockjaw table.
Drop by and say hi!
And maybe thank them on my behalf for generously adopting my books at such a short notice.
And if I owe you a signature or a picture. Let's have it taken soon.
I really do miss everyone!
That's it, pancit!
