COMICS: "CADRE: First-Born Sons" is out (SPOILERS)

Finally, my very own comic-book is out!

My cousin and big brother Emil thought the stories would make good comics, and we got excited by the prospect. It took more than five years before that dream saw print, when the first of the CADRE prologue tales, CADRE Presents: Amerikanong Hilaw, came into full being in 2009. That was followed by CADRE: Shuriken Duet parts 1 and 2, and last year by CADRE Classified.
