This weekend will mark the official book launch "Dead Balagtas Tomo 1: Mga Sayaw ng Dagat at Lupa" by Emiliana Kampilan.
Starting as a Facebook webcomic in 2013, Dead Balagtas was known for its witty and satirical take on the notable events and personalities in Philippine history. In 2017, Emiliana launched the story "Mga Sayaw ng Dagat at Lupa" in the official Facebook page where she narrated the geological origins of the Philippine islands through a series of short stories. It was made available for pre-order last November during Komikon 2017, and was released by Anino Comics in December the same year. Those who pre-ordered a copy were able to get (1) exclusive limited edition Dead Balagtas sticker and (1) pocket calendar together with their book.
Aside from the book launch, there will be a premiere signing for "Ang Hari ng Komyut" and "Sandali".
"Hari ng Komyut" by Lizette Daluz is a collection of six-panel comics about a model commuter and his adventures during his travels while the collaboration work of Mikey Jimenez & Mikey Marchan, "Sandali", is a compilation of slice-of-life stories in Manila. Both books were first released during Komikon 2017.
These books as well as the other titles of Anino Comics are available to purchase online through the Adarna House Publishing Online Store.
Book launch will be held on Sunday, January 21, 2018 at 2pm in the 3rd floor of Fully Booked, BGC, Taguig.
