Mar Amongo, 1936-2005



Gerry Alanguilan is reporting at his Komikero Comics Journal site that artist Mar Amongo passed away on Wednesday morning. He was 68 years old. According to Alanguilan's report, Amongo was a student of Nestor Redondo and contributed to several publications in his home country and a few short stories in American anthologies during the early 1980s like Weird War Tales and GI Combat. After spending time in the Middle East, Amongo returned home where he painted and worked on religious books such as a graphic novel version of Paul Twitchell's popular but controversial book The Tiger's Fang.

Alanguilan visited the artist in 2004 and wrote about it here.
