Komikero CJ: Post-Komikon, ISBNs

Three entries of interest on Gerry Alanguilan's Komikero Comics Journal site:

* Alanguilan's initial reaction to the second Komikon seems to be a very positive one. Alanguilan will pen a report for Newsarama, which he notes ran this two part series on comics in the Philippines.

* He followed that up with an extensive summing up of coverage and impressions regarding the convention, complete with video and award-winners.

* Apparently, the agency that gives out ISBNs in the Philippines is once again refusing to give them to comics, causing Alanguilan to seek clarification from the Inernational ISBN agency, a group I didn't know existed -- it makes sense, though -- and has me thinking of all kinds of James Bond-type jokes. My amusement is not shared by comics authors denied their ISBNs, I'm sure.
