TRESE Book 6 preview 3






I've had this "opening scene" in mind for more than a year. So, when I saw this scene (see below) of Rinko Kikuchi in PACIFIC RIM, I went insane! 
 

I posted that picture on my Instagram last July 2013, so yes, as far as last year, I already knew what we were going to name Book 6.

And I posted these other pictures of Rinko Kikuchi, imagining what she'd look like as Trese. Wondering what it would like if Guillermo del Toro directed the movie version.

Guess we'll all have to wait and see if that ever happens.

LEGO KAMBAL









These Lego Kambal Men were ordered piece-by-piece by our friend Jig. He wanted to give it to me and Wella as a wedding gift, but finding all the right pieces took some time, so we were only able to receive it last week. Many thanks Jig!

Now... if we can only convince Lego to really produce a Trese and Kambal playset, then that would be great!

Trese at the Metro Comic Con

And now, my very delayed post about the Metro Comic Con 2011

Since me and Kajo are trying to finish the fourth case of Book 4, in between all our usual work, let me just recap the highlights of MCC with these pictures I stole from other people’s Facebook accounts (Hello Ner and Carlo and everyone else who tagged us on Facebook!)


wherein Xandra Ramos of National Bookstore and Ernest Hernandez of Sketchpad Inc. cut the ribbon and official open Metro Comic Con 2011 (and I thought it was line to the buffet table)

With Karen, Vince, the real Hank, Kajo, Wella "The Accountant", Ian Sta. Maria, and Ace Enriquez


And we just want to say thanks to everyone who got copies of Trese, Precinto 13 by me, David, and Atan, Bathala: Apokalypsis by David Hontiveros and Ace Enriquez, the Skyworld series by Mervin Ignacio and Ian Sta. Maria, and The Filipino Heroes League by Paolo Fabregas

 
That's David Hontiveros on the left and Paolo Fabregas on the right and that's what I look like when I haven't had my first cup of coffee in the morning.

That's Paolo Fabregas on the left and Invisiboy on the right.

THE KAMBAL COSPLAYERS


Me and Jay Tablante wanted to give away this wonderful poster of Bianca King’s cosplay Trese and all people had to do was come to the MCC dressed up like Trese or the Kambal or any other character from the comic book.




Well, only a couple of brave souls dared to dress up and here are the lucky winners.






We also got to play around with actual Kambal masks that were made for Jay’s shoot. So, yes, these are one-of-a-kind masks and they are not for sale. (But don’t worry, we’re trying to figure out if we can find a way to make more masks at a more affordable price.)

Free TRESE cosplay poster


We will be giving away this limited-edition TRESE cosplay poster by Jay Tablante at the Metro Comic Con.

Here's how you can get this poster for free:


1
Come to the Metro Comic Con on May 7 and 8 dressed up as Trese or the Kambal or any of the characters from the comic book. (If you want to cosplay Capt. Guerrero or the Nuno or Maliksi the Tikbalang, that's also fine with us!)


2
Go to our booth and have your picture taken.


3
Get a free poster!

It's that easy!

We will only have 30 posters and it'll be given away on a "first come, first served" basis. (So, if 30 people come and cosplay Trese on the first day, then we won't have any posters to give away on the second day.)

The Kambal at Komikstrip


Seems like I missed all the fun that happened at this year's Komikstrip. For some strange reason, when the Kambal traveled all the way to UPLB, they got caught under the spell of some enkanto or salamankero and they were transformed into... girls!


Mignonne Yap as Happy Kambal and Erika Thea Hernandez Ajes as Gloomy Kambal



HaLe Starship Black with Erika


Mignonne, Gloomy Kambal unmasked
Simeon from EL FILIBUSTERISMO meet the Kambal?! Did he time travel?

Manix Abrera protects himself when the Kambal came along. Astig!

Gerry shows no fear when he gets surrounded by the Kambal

Happy Kambal with a very happy Manix

a very strange team-up
this is like Vertigo-Marvel-team-up


So, I wonder, were the girls inspired by this Kambal pin-up made by Ian Sta. Maria.
