SYNOPSES: Slick Ink Comics #1

[entry:pusher]

Howdy, folks!

Hey, just want to reveal to you the synopses of T. Sante's "Memento Mori" and J.K. Pangan's "Journey to New Earth" before the official website is launched:

Memento Mori
, story and art by T. Sante.
Housed in an accursed sword, the sorcerer of Vicar offers you your heart's desire-- in exchange for the deaths of anyone and everyone dear to you.

Orchestrated events place the sword into the hands of Derek, a dejected boy with a dark past that yet to be unshrouded. Now, Derek must hunt down and kill the last person who gives value to his mostly bitter life: Aliyah, the girl whom he once promised to protect.

Journey to New Earth, story and art by J.K. Pangan.
John Kenni is an ordinary boy whose past is anything but ordinary. Adopted by the loving Felton family, he lives a mostly uninteresting life, until his past returns to claim him as the one destined to change the future of another world, to be either its savior...or its destroyer.

Thrown into an unknown land that is filled with magic and peril, John must find out about his origin in it and the reason why he was delivered to its future era-- the time after Armageddon, the time of the New Earth.
Both comics will debut in Slick Ink Comics #1 soon.

Feast!

SNEAK PEEK: Slick Ink Comics #1

[entry:pusher]

Hello, hello, hello!

Haven't posted for a while now, but, boy, do I have a lot of things to tell you this time.

To begin with, we have a new member in M.A. Cabilin, a first-year information technology student of (still) CIT. In addition to managing the official website of SLICK! (coming soon), Cabilin will also write and draw "Winged Harmony" for Slick Ink Comics #2. She will be joined by C. Romo with his "Phantom Blade" debut. "Winged Harmony" is of the same genre as T. Sante's "Memento Mori", while "Phantom Blade" and J.K. Pangan's "Journey to New Earth" have similar genres as well. Again, God willing, four eight-page black & white comics will grace the next issue.

Also, we are still trying to get some advertisers to finance the printing of a limited number of copies for Slick Ink Comics #1. Advertisements, if any, would appear at the back of our pocket comic-book and the page behind it. For as long as we can get advertisers to finance the whole shebang, we will strive to make and keep Slick Ink Comics always for free.

Okay, we have below a sneak peek of a part of a page from "Journey to New Earth" and another page from "Memento Mori", the two debut comics in Slick Ink Comics #1. A full-page preview of two pages from both comics will appear in our official website, which will be launched soon.



















From J.K. Pangan's "Journey to New Earth"

By the way, Cabilin has written a review of the animated film "Fruits Basket" in Slick Ink Comics #1.

Feast!
