While partying at the Fort, never ever let the enkanto at the bar buy you a drink.

Yet, there are deadlier things that walk the streets of this city…

… When crime takes a turn for the weird, the police call Trese.”

A few months ago, I urged my friend and I to go to the Manila Book Fair ‘09 the moment I heard that I can preorder the latest volume of my favorite local comic there. After patiently waiting, the parcel greets me when I got home from school – a signed copy of Trese volume 3: Mass Murders!

Plus a free sketch of the most badass local comic heroine, Alexandra Trese, with her sidekicks, the Kambal.

Mass Murders is twice thicker than the first 2 volumes. Instead of being a compilation of case files, it’s a whole book featuring an origin story: Answering questions about Trese’s past and the Kambal, introducing key characters old and new, and forming new questions in the minds of fans.

It’s an exciting read and I’m definitely looking forward to volume 4. More power to Mr. Budjette Tan and Mr. Kajo Baldisimo.
