Mico Suayan is All Geared Up for Comics Superstardom
January 8, 2009First of all Mico Suayan is having a book signing of his second miniseries for Marvel Comics on January 10, 2009. It will be held at Comics Odyssey, Robinson’s Galleria. Be there at ‘round about 2 to 4 PM to see him in person and if you’re lucky, you might just get him to sketch for you. If you’re even luckier, he might give you a kiss! If not, then at least you get to see how much of a pretty boy he is.
Okay, so now that the goofing around is done, I can go on to introducing you to this man, Mico.
I first met this guy I think back in around 2003, in Gerry Alanguilan’s Komikero meeting, wherein we are both members. Then, several years later, we became co-workers, doing storyboards at IAS Manila Studio. A year and a half later, he left the company to pursue his real craft, which is illustrating kick-ass comics for some comics-making company called Marvel.

He’s not really trying to be scary, this is just how he is everytime he looks at the mirror.
The art he provided for the stuff he was assigned to can only be described with superlatives. His awesome rendering style and his attention to the minutest detail, to me, is his greatest asset. Not to mention his dedication to his work and professionalism. He’d do everything he has to do, anything that is instructed. He’s always the yes man.
He sure has gone a long way since I first saw his works when I met him back 2003, which mind you was already great. But the ones he’s coming up with right now are on several levels higher.
It’s just exciting what the future holds for this young blood and his art. What could it be that stands on the peak of his career? One thing is for sure though, with more and more projects coming his way, all roads can only point to greatness.
One dream I have left for him is to do local komiks work in the future. We already talked about this and came up with a plan to make comics out from his idea, which then I get to expound and write a story with. When it finally happens, we promise it’s going to be a blast.
