Kabayaran sa Tagumpay
Kabayaran sa Tagumpay by Honorio Salazar Illustrated by Angel Martinez Ligaya Komiks Issue No.1 April 19 1960
Steve, Here's another example of a Coching-influenced illustrator. In fact your two other recent postings illustrated by Villegas-Ty and Escover were also Coching-influenced. There actually were many illustrators influenced by Coching which I never saw. Somehow they disappeared and all the Redondo-influenced artists took over and which lasted for a very long time. Wonder why this was so. Maybe Coching was harder to copy? Interesting. Rod
Wakasan Wow Pilipino Comics Aliwan Comics Liwayway Bannawag & other published magazines still in the Philippines & became a literary media & cult favorite by public domain in the Philippines.
Ruben Yandoc serialized novel is El Rami also known as Dangerous Sacrifice by the international media in the Philippines & epic comicbook story serialized in Lagim Comics from 1967-68 became a cult favorite by public domain in the Philippines.
Angel Martinez became a very good illustrator later (1970s). His style became his own and it had no vestiges whatsoever of what Steve has posted here. Like many komiks illustrators who copied Redondo and Coching, the moment they weaned themselves from their favorite masters, they found their own style, like in the case of Yandoc & Rodriguez who were obviously influenced by Coching in the early years of their careers but found their own style later.
Dr.Black & The Zombie Women classic horror mystery suspense supernatural science fiction melodrama story published by Tagumpay Magazine from 1968-69 & became popular in the Philippines & the archives is considered lost media & shuttered by Philippine military & police under martial law of President Ferdinand Marcos on September 21 1972 54 years ago in history.
Steve, Hindi mo yata nakuha yung sagot ko about the poster. Please do send me a scan. Thanks. JM, Hindi ko yata kilala si Angel Martinez. Yandoc and Rodriguez were probably the exception, most of the Redondo-type stylists could not get away from his brush style. Nebres was influenced by both, his layouts were Coching, but his rendering was Redondo. Rod
