BFF update: Book launch and Sketchcards
April 24th, 2008The BFF launch will happen during the Mangaholix event on Saturday, May 31, 2008, in SMX near SM Mall of Asia.
The first 100 Beerkadets to have their BFF signed will get to draw a one-of-a-kind Beerkada sketchcard, drawn by such luminaries as Syeri Baet, Ariel Atienza, and Ryan Orosco.
Those who can’t make it can chance the Toycon 2008 in Megamall some three weekends later.
See you there!

Do you just go or do you have to get a ticket or something?

Alright… if they do an Anime Videoke contest in the con, I would love to bring noise canceling earphones and an MG-520 Helicopter gunship with an MG-134 Vulcan gunpod and can fire 2.75-inch rockets or at least a 50 cal M82A1 Barrett anti-materiel rifle with which to blast the sound system.
I wonder which restos in MOA carry the bucket?

While looking at the sketchcards featured above, I noticed that the featured artists sign their sketchcards on the side or corner of their drawings. That made me examine my own sketchcard more closely to find the signature. That’s when I noticed something. Did you guys know that L signs all his strips with his initials? He’s very subtle about it, I didn’t even notice them until recently. I did some quick research and found that he’s been hiding his logo in every strip since Beerlenium! The oldest strip I found with L’s logo is the Ultraviolated strip. Hanep, parang Where’s Waldo. Now there’s even more reason to revisit the older books.

that sneaky BASTARD!
May 5th, 2008 at 8:59 pm
L: you sly dog, I’ve been looking at those logos for 10 years, ngayon ko pa lang napansin. you’ve hid them as pockets, patches, parts of drainage pipes, and even the cover of the cursed vcd! syet, maduduling talaga ako sa kakahanap. it’s even harder to look for than Larry Alcala’s profile! :-p
May 5th, 2008 at 9:28 pm
I bet if you held it up to the mirror, L’s initials will look like a demonic symbol of evil! and once you realize this it will burst into flames, engulf your spirit and devour your being until you are under his full command and control! Beerkadets are merely a ruse! He means for all of us to become Lyndonites! AGH! There’s no hope for purging! XO

Monsy: Reserve all 8 books with Lyndon, otherwise, even though he will bring all 8, there might not be enough copies, and other people might buy it ahead of you.
Phoebe: You just realized?
I thought it was general knowledge. Anyway… you’re not saying anything buy L already sent the Debt Note sketchcard above to you!!! GRRRR!!!!
May 6th, 2008 at 11:49 am
Chompy: yes, I just realized. and I’m still kicking myself for being so unobservant. I just thought it weird that L didn’t sign his work like most artists do. should’ve known better. anyway, I’m having fun looking for the logos. I’m thinking of getting extra copies so i’ll have fun hunting up and circling the logos.
Re the Debt Note sketchcard… *scratches head* L sent me the sketchcard? when? as I mentioned before, what I got with my BFF was the Sensation Run sketchcard.
May 10th, 2008 at 12:37 am
@Phoebe: matagal ko nang napansin yung sign ni mr. L, eh.. at least confirmed na ngayon na sign nga yun ni mr. L..
@Chompy: how do i reserve copies po ba? para matuloy ko yung plan ko of locking myself up in my room, only to leave after reading all 8 books.. hehe..

Matt: D-uh! I feel like such an idiot. I’ve been seeing that sign for 10 years. TEN FRIGGIN’ YEARS! I should have at least caught it in 2002, when L had his Larry Alcala tribute. He even hinted at it then.
May 10th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
my goodness golly! i’ve been living under a rock! me want a sketch card!
May 12th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
