DUMOT
Author: Alan Navarra
ISBN:  971-05450-6-X
B and W illustrated novel
SRP: P200.00

I hate it.  Like the last kiss from a scorned one-nighter. Like the walls of inch-thick dirt that have been there for 14 years.  Redundant conversations in a basement that echo for months on end.  A staircase with old, stinky wood.  Prime time kabobohan.  4-day old socks  Reflective surfaces in moments of discomfort.  Blood in all the wrong places.  A painful gut.  And just like the pain of process-oriented frustration, I hate it.

WARNING:  Explicit Language

foreword by Angelo Suarez

*Available in all National Book Store in Metro Manila and nearby provinces.  Will be available in Visayas and Mindanao NBS branches by next week.

SIM features FHL

By Ruel S. De Vera
Philippine Daily Inquirer
05/14/2011


 "...Paolo brings a muscular sense of shadow and light to the black-and-white art of Book One. The setting is clearly a slightly dark, parallel version of our own Metro Manila. He makes the characters distinctive and rewards each with a unique voice. What makes Book One stand out further is that it may seem like your average heroes-fighting-bad guys title, but in truth, Paolo is writing a mystery full of secrets. It’s smart and super-powered."

The Filipino Heroes League

The Filipino Heroes League
Book One:  Sticks and Stones
Creator:  Paolo Fabregas
ISBN:  971-05450-4-3
B&W comic book
SRP: P200.00

 
Under-manned and under-funded,
the Filipino Heroes League does what it can
to fight against injustice.

It's tough being a super hero
but it's even tougher being a third-world super hero.

Available in all Pandayan Bookshops, National Book Store, Fully Booked and Bibliarch outlets
