This post was supposed to be in high spirits when I first thought about it. But after finalizing the shortlist, it turned out to be… quite depressing.
Four! I spent days gathering views from different people in an effort to extend the list to at least five. I originally wanted to do a top 10! I did research until minutes prior to this writing, but I couldn't add more even if I wanted to. I'd only be fooling myself and you if I did. What a realization!
No wonder the local komiks industry is hardly moving! Too many slots are still vacant. Like a passenger jeepney in a station pila, it won't go forward until all seats are filled up.
Now don't be confused. I know there are a lot of really good pinoy komiks out there. If I am to do list for that, everybody knows it is going to exceed way past four. But I'm counting down the titles that had sufficient commercial success and publicity. If you are to dispute this list and thinks other titles should be included, hit the comments! I'll be very happy to hear it.
So without further ado, Komiks Manila proudly (still proudly) presents to you these icons, "The Top 4 Most Successful Komiks (1990 to present)".
