After KOMIKON, Back and Bloggin'!

I apologize for quite a hiatus for probably a week because of KOMIKON. But since its over and I'm now free, I can now attend to provide you again with the latest news and events today. Here I offer an apology cake for all readers and keep posted for anything new I love to share with you all!

But first of all I would like to congratulate the KOMIKON for a job well done for this day. Too bad for me that I came in late to sell my comics KRISIS KOMIX (Identity Krisis and World Krisis). It was a fun day for me despite my ailment in my leg. Had fun with comic friends. Though I don't have enough budget for comics for this time, I am happy to see that this industry is growing again in the digital age. 

JUAN MINUTE SPOTLIGHT: Sweet, final quarter for Candy

CANDY Pangilinan opens the final quarter of 2011 with a series of exciting new projects as headlined by two television series with the fast-rising TV-5 Kapatid network. Candy is currently part of the television adaptation of the classic 1980s teen film Bagets under the direction of Mark Reyes. On Bagets, Candy plays a single mom who has three bi-racial children: a Filipino-Japanese, a Filipino-Korean, and an Afro-Asian. “The role is quite challenging for me since I had to learn a bit of Japanese and Korean plus the verbal inflections and accent of an Afro-Asian as part of my preparation for the character I’m portraying on the series,” explains Candy.

Bagets, which airs on TV-5 Sundays at 3 p.m. after Paparazzi, is Candy’s first television project with the Kapatid network. “I’m thrilled to work with several old friends whom I haven’t seen and worked with for quite some time and I’m also excited to make new friends with TV-5. I’m sure that there are so many wonderful things that I could learn from them and I’m also very eager to share what I know especially with the young people whom I am working with on Bagets.”
