So, I went to Cebu Comc Convention and met these three guys that will be on the new segment called "Quickie Interview".
So, go to Google translate and get ready, because the interview is now up!
First up, we have Dr. Carlo Jose San Juan, creator of the Callous comic strips that are published on Manila Bulletin.

2. First time mo bang sumali dito sa C3?
- "Oo, first time ko."
3. How was the experience?
- "Ok naman. Ine-enjoy ko naman yung mga tao dito, open sila sa comic ko, very good time."
4. Attack on Titan yang sa phone mo?
- "Oo, pinapa-drawing lang, comission."
5. Word for aspiring comic creators like me.
- "Just go for it. These days, marami nang ways to show your comic online. And the readers will tell you what's right and what's wrong."
Next up, (let's just settle with fb names)JP P Palabon, creator of Puso Negro.
1. Paano ka nagsimula sa pagkokomiks?

3. Gaano kahirap ang pag-oorganize nun?
- "Mahirap in a sense na you need to raise funds."
4. Gaano kasaya na nakikita mo na yung finished product?
- "Katulad yung na paggawa ng komiks, ang pinaka-masaya na stage nun ay ang finished product."
5.Word for aspiring comic creators like me.
- "Don't stop learning at saka don't stop creating. And also, learn your favorite artist's weakness, not just his strength, para ma-avoid mo yun."
