Help me fund a Filipino-made comic in English, “Aswang at Berdugo”!
Hello everyone! I’m very excited to announce a 3-part komiks project involving characters from the Project Bayani Komiks.
Each story will have some darker themes, some horror or horror-adjacent (just in time for Halloween), and each issue will star one of the three Young Bayani or superheroes!
Bernardo Carpio, or Boy - Issue 1 - ASWANG AT BERDUGO (monsters and executioners)
Adarna, or Dara - Issue 2 - BANTAY TUBIG (guardians of the water)
and Patrick, formerly known as Lastikid - Issue 3 - KURAKOT (corrupt)
This will take place with each former teenage hero now in their twenties.
The first story in the lineup will star Bernardo Carpio, and will be entitled “Aswang At Berdugo” (roughly translated - Monsters and Executioners)
The story sees “hero of the people” Bernardo Carpio called by police to investigate supposed “aswang attacks” in a slum in Metro Manila, and encountering the so-called masked “Aswang Killer”.
It will tackle themes of police brutality and EJK or extra-judicial killings in the Philippines.
I’m hoping to raise funds for this project so that I may be able to supplement the amount I will be paying this comic’s amazing artist, Gener Pedriña.
So I’m asking for DONATIONS and providing REWARD TIERS to help us get this comic made! This will be happening through Ko-Fi, linked on my blog!
