Pinoy Comics

I have no idea how to add tags to this site so that it's searchable. Maybe I should type it in here. Pinoy comics fjmu Philippines Philippine comics jokes. There! Hahahahahahaha! Okay, you got me... can't think of anything to write.

Golden Age

These pages are probably the golden age of FJMU comics. This is when they were at their peak. I remember passing around my pages around the classroom and everyone reading them. When I don't do anything new for a week or so, people would start asking me. Yes... I actually only did all this for my friends and classmates. It's the only satisfaction that I get--- their enjoyment.

Fan Art

Ha! I bet none of you would ever think that some 'fans' would actually take the time and draw FJMU comics, eh? Well, our very first fan art comes from a good friend of mine. I shall not mention his name... I'm sure he knows who he is.

Ugly? Not really... what it is is a load of crap!!! But it's a sweet sentiment... I love it! :)

Getting Serious

Ah, yes... this is when I actually started getting a little bit more serious about doing FJMU comics. As you can see, I actually printed out panels using the computer and opted to use better and more appropriate paper. The look of the characters are becoming more established here, too. So, I hope you enjoy the ride!

Wow, there's even a year at the upper right corner of the page... 2001! OMG... this is old stuff! That's like 8 years ago! And it's all still funny to me... and reminds me of the old days. Haha!

Someone Laughed

An old college classmate of mine saw this site and said that she still finds these stories very funny. That's nice to know. At least I know I'm actually making someone laugh! One fan is enough! She requested that the comic pages be compiled so it's easier to read. Well, no way. You read it one by one... you tend to appreciate it more. Haha!



Hahaha! This actually happened! Yessireee! The second story, I mean. Excited when first starting out a report, then, in the end, nothing really was accomplished because everyone got lazy.

Yohan

It is again time to know your FJMU Characters! Yey! I'm really tired so I won't say much. Enjoy!

10th Page Anniversary!

Well, here's our 10th page! Wow! Not bad, eh?

Hahaha! I like this. I think I kill myself... and only myself. I seem to be the only one enjoying all this. No one's commenting or anything.

This is the first appearance of another new character--- Mr. Bonbon. That was our teacher that kinda looks like Grimace... hehehe!

Walastik!

Okay, fans... or haters... whatever you want to call yourselves! Here's another one!

As you can see, the art on this one is better than the others. For one, it's on a decent paper with no lines. A note to everyone is that all these stories came from somewhere. They all came from real life experiences. I just exaggerated them a little and added more humor to it.

Back To Our Comics

Hmm... the art on this one is bad. I think everything's just getting worse. Hehehe. That's how it is when you don't know how to draw.

Hahaha! This page is actually funny! Or maybe I just love my own work. Haha!

Mike

And it's that time again to know the FJMU characters more! Here's Mike's profile!

7th Page

Honestly, I hate how I drew this page and the previous page. Why did I have to use this blasted paper for my comics? I swear, this is the last page with this kind of paper and art quality.

Haha! I just read this. I am not expecting any of you guys to actually get the jokes on this one. This was made during the time when text messages took off. The networks couldn't keep up with the growth so messages were delayed for days! Getting a line would take weeks! It's insane! I remember getting a text message several days delayed! What if that was an emergency? Dude, I think someone's following me... help me! My friend wouldn've been dead by the time I get the message! But then again, why the hell would he message me if it's an emergency? Well, maybe he can't talk! Maybe he's hiding! Oh, well.

And here we are again...

Hmm, by the look of things, it seems like my drawing is getting worse. Oh, well.

More Comics

And here again is another page. I don't feel like saying anything tonight. I'm just wondering how to promote this site more.

Ken

I think it's time to actually know the characters more. What better way to know a person than by seeing their social networking site profile! Here's Ken's profile.

As you can see, this is his Friendster profile. You could totally see the age of these comic strips. This was made during the time when Friendster ruled the social networking scene. MySpace, you say? I hate MySpace then, and I hate it now. MySpace is what the world is like when there are no graphic designers.

Here It Comes!

The rule here is that I upload a page every single day. Well, once they run out, it's time for me to do new ones. I don't know how hard that would be since it's been 7 years since last I did one. I still need to get my head wrapped around the characters and story again, and find that funny side of me that's buried deep within a cavern somewhere in my brain. It's pretty easy to find since my brain's empty anyway.

To tell you guys the truth, I am reading these pages as I am posting them. I haven't seen them for years! Ah, nostalgia.

3rd Page

So now we have the third page. I now added a site counter so I can keep track of people who actually visit this page. Power to the FJMU... uh... ers. FJMUers! Yeah.

EXPLANATIONS: At this point, I was starting to really enjoy doing these comic strips of me and my friends. As you can see, the panels are more organized. It's now broken down using the traditional 3-box panels. But it's still pretty lose. The handwriting is still very casual and poor. The art is, too. It's not accurate and it's crappy (well, I'm not a good illustrator to begin with). I'm beginning to start making the characters have their own look and traits, though.

Jonathan, in this page, is one of the FJMU gang's friends who just dropped out of school after only a year. He's this European surfer dude that we heard, put up a pet store after he dropped out of college. The next we saw him, he grew a beard. That's where this story came from.

Going Good

I finally got the header up. This site is looking fairly nice. It's that time again to upload a new page. Enjoy! :)

EDIT: I found this copy wherein I actually typed in the dialogue... which made it easy to read. Hmm... maybe I should do that for all of them. Great! More work!

FJMU is Back!

Hello, gang! It's been a while. The last FJMU website was up back in 2005. Almost 5 years later, I found my backup files of the site hidden beneath stacks of other files in my computer. And so, I have decided to revive it because whenever I read my old FJMU comic strips, it brings back good and fun memories. I hope you check back soon and enjoy what you see.

Here's a page for yah. :)

This particular one is one of the earliest... if not, the earliest! I started this when I was just bored in class and doing nothing... back in architecture school.
