Nope, I'm not talking about politics, as in local government politics. I must be the most apolitical person on Earth, having Brian Vaughan and Tony Harris' EX MACHINA as my ONLY background in politics, which counts as inapplicable in my country since it's not even set in the Philippines. Like what the legendary Sting said in one of his songs, politicians all seem like gameshow hosts to me.

I'm talking about the KOMIKON AWARDS 2009. [link]

I look forward to this. I missed the first one way back 2006 (I was just about to pick up a pencil and start drawing again then), and I'm glad it's back after a 2-year hiatus.

Please do nominate those who deserve to be nominated, and later, vote for those who deserve to win. I'm not sure if nominations from outside the Philippines would count, but hey, love for comics should know no boundaries, right?

I'm about to send my nominations now, and yes I nominated Budjette Tan and Kadjo Baldisimo's TRESE for BEST GRAPHIC NOVEL.

My nominee for BEST COMIC SCENE: Unstoppable discovering that his father, the late MR. UNSTOPPABLE, was just an actor in a superhero TV series. Love thy own. Hehe. And yes I said this coz I'm trying to tell you what to think. Kidding!

I'm really excited, but what excites me more is the fact that we already have 2 comic conventions in the Philippines. Yey!

See you at the cons!
