To be clear: we are not friends with nor are we associated with Patrons of the Arts more than any other event organizer.
In the past, we have found ourselves at odds with them—such as when they pressured us to shift event dates that they felt conflicted with theirs.

Hi, Kommunity.
We at Komiket want to thank you for an amazing first half of the year.
At every single event, watching the turnout fills us with immense joy and pride—just as it has every year since we started in 2015.
Given the conversations currently circulating ...

jessica : kung makukulong din kayo dun sa ICC edi atleast magkasama kayo ho kayo. ‘diba yon ang gusto niyo?
bato : depende kung magkasama kami sa selda
jessica : qualify ko lang po, willing kayong magpakulong basta malapit ‘yong selda niyo kay digong?
bato : kung sigurado 🥺
This #kmjs interview with Bato is very illuminating
- Bato admits that he only came to the Senate for the vote to change leadership
- Bato said he wouldn't have come if he knew for sure there was a warrant
- Alan Cayetano convinced him to come, Alan sent a vehicle to pick him up
ANOTHER BROCKA CLASSIC RESTORED!
A new 4K restoration of Lino Brocka's 1974 classic 'Tinimbang Ka Ngunit Kulang' ('Weighed But Found Wanting'), courtesy of Carlotta Films, Janus Films, the FDCP and the Philippine Film Archive, will make its world premiere in the Cinemalibero section of the Festival Il Cinema Ritrovato in Italy.
The 40th edition of the festival will run from June 20 to 28 this year.
ang taas ng standards natin sa mga normal na manggagawa—ultimo cashier dapat degree holder. pero ‘tong mga namumuno sa bansa kung hindi ex-convict, may criminal record, wala man lang degree.
apply your preferences sa mga politikong binoboto ninyo.
nakakatawa kasi matic na if you’re against the government—specifically this infamous family name, they will label you with the opposition’s color.
paalala lang: WALANG KULAY ang naghahangad ng gobyernong tapat at may malasakit sa mga pilipino.
politicians are not celebrities. hindi dapat iniidolo! fanaticism is what ruins our ability as voters to think critically.
ang election ay parang isang malaking application process. kung hindi qualified, huwag iboto.
marami na ring conventions and events that features filipino authors and illustrators na accessible dahil kadalasan libre naman ang entrance. it’s really such a joy to interact, and briefly have a conversation with the people who made the stories you deeply love.
sa pagbabalik ng local animated film sa sinehan, nawa’y maging daan ito upang mas suportahan at mabigyang pansin ang mga illustrators at manunulat sa bansa.
ang daming magagandang komiks, at unti-unti na silang nagiging accessible. online man o through physical copies.
trust me! ang saya magbasa ng komiks kapag physically mo siyang hawak. they also often tackle really interesting subject matters and, of course, showcase filipino culture that some of us might not be familiar with.
hindi na kailangan ng mahabang paliwanag, introduksyon, o isang online discourse. nasa harapan na natin ang katotohanan, inihain na ang mga ebidensya.
kung hindi ka pa rin galit, hindi lang naman ikaw ang talo—pati mga pilipino.
