Patuloy pa din ang mabagal na proseso ng pagguhit ng Bangas, isang komiks nobela na nag-uumapaw sa aksyon at goto. Ito ang project na sampung taon kong ipinagpaliban. Bakit kamo? Kasi mahilig akong magpalusot sa aking sarili. Heto ang top 5 bullshit excuses na sinasabi ko sa sarili ko:
1. Hindi ko yata kaya.
2. Ok lang yan, may panahon pa.
3. Kailangan ko pang magrevise ng kwento.
4. Hilaw pa yung konsepto.
5. Di bale, bukas sisimulan ko na.
Noong 2009, nagpasya ako na ibasura na ang mga bullshit excuses at isusulat ko na ang Bangas. Noong 2010, sinimulan ko na ang seryosong paglalaan ng oras para maiguhit ito. Mahirap balansehin ang trabaho, ang mga raket, at ang "personal project." Ganon talaga ang buhay. Mahirap talagang magluwal ng ideya sa mundo. Kaya tama na ang bullshit. Game na.
Lalabas ang Bangas sa last quarter ng 2011 sa Paltik Komiks Anthology. Kasama dito ang mga gawa ni Ivan Despi, at Chester Ocampo.

I’m still working on Bangas, a comic book filled to the brim with action and goto. This is the project that I’ve been putting off for ten years. Why? Because I give myself bullshit excuses. Here are the top 5 on my list:
1. I can’t do it.
2. It’s ok, I’ve got lots of time.
3. The story needs to be revised.
4. I still need to develop the concept.
5. I’ll start working on it tomorrow.
In 2009, I decided to get rid of all my bullshit excuses and I started writing the script. In 2010, I started seriously devoting time to draw the pages. It’s difficult balancing your day job, your sidelines, and your “personal project.” But that’s just how it is. If you want to bring an idea into this world you’ll have to go through birthing pains. So get rid of all the bullshit and get to work.
You’ll find Bangas in the Paltik Komiks Anthology together with stories from Ivan Despi and Chester Ocampo.
