Matt: Accurate though. The media has an unfortunate tendency to angle any story to suit their need for sensationalism then piously proclaim it as the truth.
she had a cam. She was lured by being promised an interview with a celebrity, di ba? the question is, how did the station get the feed? 🙂
I remember several years back when Mr. L asked if the readers wanted a “new” look for the beerkada characters. it did not sit in well with the readers and the “old” beerkada look stuck. in time though, subtle changes have been introduced and because they aren’t rushed or changed the character completely, the change was accepted.
Of course this is just MY beerkada conspiracy theory :p
Jopoy & sublimeabsurdity: It’s called growth. you can see the growth of L’s drawing, storytelling, and pacing skills throughout the 10 years worth of strips. the improvements are the most noticeable in the body proportions, definition, and motion as well as the reconfiguring of the panels for maximum impact. L did a great job pacing the changes so that the feel and impact of the strips is still very Beerkada, and the changes aren’t forced or jarring. That’s probably what makes Beerkada better than the Peanuts Gallery. (and no, I’m not brown-nosing).
Jopoy – But as of the moment I think Jay has the most life changing, uhhh…”change” in the physical sense. Come on, he’s got one eye, how can he avoid a anti-rally policeman’s truncheon if the policeman takes advantage of his blind side…^^
P.S. Harry should wear contacts. Haha. The girly colored ones…emerald green…or sky blue hahahaha.
Jopoy: Avoid commenting consecutively. Put it all on one comment, unless you have a reply to a reply on your comment. Don’t reply to Yaka, then post another comment to reply to another previous comment.
This goes for everyone as well.
As much as we like getting comments, too many is making the page too long don’t you agree?
hah, what’s with the media? they’re exposing government/military secrets like they’re the Lords for such information? Heck, Thailand and the rest of ASEAN, Philippines Excluded have their media clipped.
Lol. Stupid. Didn’t she see the irony in Jay’s statement? Hahaha.
Where’d the cam come from?

as the saying goes, kung gusto may paraan… hehe
she is just the kind of person you want to hit with a bat…
how’s that for ultra realism? comic strips portraying reality asit is
guess where she hid the cameraphone
ROFLMAO. What if the terrorists are watching the same news?
I just realized, half the Beerkada got a phyical change:
Alan: declared “legally blind” and now wears shades. Also now has semi-kalbo hair.
Glen: no longer torpe. Always has red raw shoulders due to you-know-who.
Andrea: hair color changed somewhere between BFF and the beerkada.net archive.
Boopey: got a bald spot on the top of her head because of “Psylar” and now wears various hats.
Jay: Lost one eye. (What if he met Alan’s “optimist” eye doctor after all this?)
When will the other members have changes of their own?

Jopoy – Bryan gets emergency lipo

Eize – hehe, astig…emergency lipo for Bryan.
Jopoy – But as of the moment I think Jay has the most life changing, uhhh…”change” in the physical sense. Come on, he’s got one eye, how can he avoid a anti-rally policeman’s truncheon if the policeman takes advantage of his blind side…^^
P.S. Harry should wear contacts. Haha. The girly colored ones…emerald green…or sky blue hahahaha.
Tess should be hanged like her novel counterpart.
I just realized: by now, at least one of the Beerkada should have noticed Jay missing.
Yaka: (speaking in Morpheus-like voice) By the end of all this, he will have no need to dodge.
Jopoy: probably won’t be Jimmy though.

Have you ever had a female teacher named Tita Mangala? She etched that STUPID (sorry!) saying in our heads.

@Phoebe – good analyzing. Never thought of that.
But yeah.. it’s just like Pinoy media. Haha. Turning the story around.
aling mcbeal will give bryan lipo because she needs his cholesterol for cooking . tumataas na ang presyo ng langis!
squee: Okay… there’s a disturbing thought…
hah, what’s with the media? they’re exposing government/military secrets like they’re the Lords for such information? Heck, Thailand and the rest of ASEAN, Philippines Excluded have their media clipped.
My bet is, Aling Mcbeal drained him of lipids to get even with Bryan after his heart fell for Franchette.

Why are Pinoy Journalists stereotyped as nosy, tactless and hungry for ratings?
Tora^
because Most Pinoy Journalist are indeed tactless, nosy, and “patay-gutom” for ratings.
@Tora – Because most of them ARE nosy, tactless, and hungry for ratings.
I know Ken said it already.. but it’s worth another say.
Prime example, remember the coup? The military asked them to leave.. they didn’t. Look what happened. Haha.
I guess, that’s what you get when News media is run with a capitalist bent which emphasizes profit over ethics and quality of service
This—is pretty accurate on how the media works.
Nice going, media outlets.
