Celebrating the launch of Chopsoy Comics’ first series Buster, creator Peejay Catacutan will be signing copies on July 9, 1-4 pm at Comic Odyssey in Fully Booked BGC.
Buster follows four soldiers trapped within the enemy stronghold, a country used to be known as the Philippines. Captain Gan, an aging Japanese warrior leads a team consisting of a Russian speedster, a Canadian girl capable of doing herculean feats, and an American engineering genius in their first counter-offensive. Their secret weapon? A legendary blast from the Philippine past. What stands between them and victory is a ruthless army led by a dangerous man who sees the world as his prey. The world was lost in the third world war. The fight to win it back starts now.
The book is written and illustrated by Peejay Catacutan, who has also illustrated Xenoglyphs and Monomyth for the California-based comics company, OSSM Comics. Eisner-nominated comics creator Gerry Alanguilan has called Buster “A thrilling idea for a Filipino comic book story, fulfilled by expressive, dynamic art.”
Copies are now available in Comic Odyssey (P200) and will be released soon in other comics specialty stores. Buster can also be ordered via the Facebook page.
