Go manfran go! This is a first in Esato... Onli in da pilipins treds! 
Technique-wise, manfran's works have international aesthetics, yet there's no doubting the Pinoy origin once you read the scattered texts and the speech ballons. (Or no-balloons, in the style of Jeff Danziger.)
The sense of humor is spot-on present-day Pinoy. That's where many Filipino political cartoonists fail -- they either leave the humor out of it, or are out-of-touch, or are simply un-funny. True, it's a matter of personal style and the "lance-and-dragon" approach sometimes works -- the terrific cartoonist of the defunct Today newspaper comes to mind -- but we could already get our dose of depressing seriousness from the news articles themselves, can't we.
I am personally hoping that manfran continues to develop his own visually complex cartoon style. It's tempting to go the A.Lipin route and be done with it for the day but we want lots of material to fill the forthcoming Php7,500/pc coffetable manfran books so.... |

@manfran - Are these "greatful dead" the same ones who rose from their graves last election to vote for GMA? 
They must have their own band leader - Winston Garcia in place of Jerry Garcia.... |

@Chili
Sir, pwede ka na rin gumawa ng thread para sa mga black & white pictures mo!

@chilli, malamang sila rin yun! hehehe! Think of it guys, pera natin ang ginagasta nila sa mga occasions na ganyan. That's why they needed to impliment the e-vat kasi they used up our money during the last elections pang bili ng boto! nyehehehe! lang yang buhay 'to!
Btw, tama suggestion ni @chax, gawa ka rin ng thread for your B/W images! Sige naaaaa!!!!

@manfran - This administration's arrogance, hypocrisy and greed for power are really boundless. They'd spend the taxpayers' money to make sure of winning in any election. And then charge US again for it, in the form of EVAT!  All this, after GMA said in 2003 that she wouldn't run again.
Why go after the poor's purse? Why so easy for the gov't to sell off the NLEX, then do nothing (except take kickbacks?) when the Lopezes raised the toll fee to absurdly high rates?
@chax - Thanks bud, but I think the b&w thread's an awful idea. Next thing you know, every Pinoy would be making a thread about their favorite vegetable, sawsawan, etc. Our @manfran's case is truly exceptional though. He's the editorial cartoonist for the Daily Tribune. |
