Kwento Monster Volume 1 is a premier komiks anthology bridging speculative fiction, fantasy, and adventure rooted in Filipino culture and contemporary storytelling. Published by Rexy Dorado and Angelo Mendez, and curated by Sigmund Torre, this collection brings together a powerful range of creative voices from the Philippines and its diaspora. In this first volume, readers will encounter a diverse tapestry of stories:
- A mercenary gifted with the chilling ability to erase memories.
- Seafarers navigating the currents of friendship in a drowned, post-apocalyptic world.
- A balikbayan seeking a fresh start-only to be drawn into the gritty shadows of Angeles, Pampanga.
- A futuristic, reimagined Pasig River flowing through an alternate timeline where the Philippines won its revolution against Spain.
Featuring written works by J. Torres, Rexy Dorado, Sigmund Torre, Chad Cabrera, Angelo Mendez, Rey Velasco, Gani Cabezas, Chen Lapuz, Julia Azarcon, and Brandon Relucio, paired with vivid artwork from Elbert Or, John Ray, Mike Banting, Sam Gungon, Dominic Cabatit, Chocnut-san, Georjanno Abenoja, and more. Kwento Monster offers an unforgettable exploration of Filipino resilience, imagination, and graphic arts.
