So here it is. You can read the entire issue 10 of Cast here online for free. This is my favorite issues of Cast and probably one of the best comic stories I’ve written. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to release a new issue of Cast due to me and my artists being busy with other stuff and lack of funds, so I wanted to post this online to share with as many people as possible.
All I ask in return is if you enjoyed this story, please pass the link to this site along to others. I really love this story and would love to have more people read it (which is why I’m posting it here for free).
The series, specifically this issue, WON in various categories in the 2009 Komikon Awards last September 2009. I’d like to thank everyone who voted for us! Special thanks to my uncle Geny Bautista, cousin, Nicolo Javier, and uncle Bingle Diago for going above and beyond the call of duty in spreading the word about our nomination and getting people to vote!
Here are the categories won:
Best Series
Best Comic Scene:
Best cover:
Me with the staff of Blue Cow Co with the Cast awards
Me with one of my original Cast artists, Harvey Tolibao
This win is dedicated to my wife, Iyay. The winning scene features I poem I wrote for her back in 2000. This is the poem that forever changed our relationship (which is why I used it in the story. I know it works!).
To thank everyone who voted (and even those who didn’t), I’ll send a special preview to our long-delayed but upcoming issue 12 to readers who email me at jamiebautista @ gmail.com. Just put “Cast 12 preview” in the subject line and I’ll send you a link where you can download it.
As a special treat, I’ll try to write up commentary for each of this issue’s pages until the whole issue is covered. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do so I figured this would be the best time to do it. If not all the pages have commentary, check back every so often. I’ve always wanted to share the behind-the-scenes info with our readers.
Well, that’s all. I do hope that you do enjoy the story as you spend a few minutes with Will, Lel, Ces and the rest of the Cast.
