Ask your local comic shop retailer to save you one, won’t you please? Like I’ve said before: why read something for free on the internet when you can pay for it?

And yes! For the three of you who’ve been wondering, I will have new comics on the ChemSet in 2008. I promise (or threaten, depending on your point of view…)

We resume our fine dining for 2008! Let’s begin with a four-color meal. Kain na!

I hope you enjoyed this latest entry on the menu.
Still hungry? If you missed them, check out the other stories in this series–

‘Kare-kare’ is a traditional Filipino dish that incorporates various assorted ingredients into a delicious, meaty stew. ‘Komiks’ is a term for sequential art made in the Philippines, referring to Pinoy mass-produced newsprint comic books. Put these two together and you have Kare-Kare Komiks, the semi-monthly webcomic only The Chemistry Set.

Kare-Kare Komiks is an ongoing collection of self-contained short comics by Andrew Drilon that explores new flavors of the sequential art experience.

Be here in two weeks for our next delicious installment! Kare-Kare Komiks : Filipino-Food-For-Thought! Only on The Chemistry Set.

Maraming salamat!

Welcome one and all to the 14th installment of Kid Houdini and the Silver Dollar Misfits!

My buddy Jack Lawrence of “Lions, Tigers and Bears” fame sent a cover illustration for the graphic novel today that absolutely blew me away! Now before you ask “Exactly how many covers do you have already,” let me simply say there is a method to our madness. Please bear with us and we’ll reveal “the plan” as soon as we are able to.

And with that, I need to get back to work. Yikes, that Deadline Monster is a beast–and a ravished beast at that!

Thanks for reading and helping to spread the word. YOU ARE APPRECIATED!

Welcome to the glorious 56th installment of The Surreal Adventures of Edgar Allan Poo!

As you can see, our heroes have been joined by the valiant Bloodclaw of the Ravens. The more the merrier… right? Well–as long as Bloodclaw doesn’t have a taste for crab meat. If that is the case, things could get very ugly… and fast!

Thanks for joining us and continuing to help spread the word. We all sincerely appreciate your continuing efforts!

Until next week,
Dwight L. MacPherson (with Thomas Boatwright and Thomas Mauer)

Thanks!

Has a week gone past already since our dashing young hero was last seen surrounded by Nazis?

Well actually, yes it is and yes he still is. But fear not, true believers because today’s the day that Daddy brings home the bacon, and the Gloom can finally return fire against the evil Nazi villainy!

Viewers of a sensitive disposition towards chocolate muffins should turn away now….

What does a zombie want?

Welcome, welcome, one and all! We thank you for joining us for the 13th page of Kid Houdini and the Silver Dollar Misfits.

As you can see, Harry and his friends are about to go adventuring. Will they find Bea’s father? Will they make it back into their cage before Professor Murat discovers they’re missing?

All will be revealed in good time, my friends.

Thank you for reading, and, as always, we thank you for helping to spread the word. We can’t do this without you.
