Additional Backgound Commentary

If WASTED is accessed through WebComicsNation, almost every page will have a bit of commentary from me about that particular page at the bottom, and some info about Wasted in general. The notes don't appear on this blogspot site, unfortunately. This site acts only as a portal anyway, which will always contain only ONE page, which is the most current one. If you click here, it will take you to where the strip is actually archived, where you can browse all pages available so far.

WASTED GETS A NEW PRINTING! Wasted will become available again in print form, and will be launched at the Summer Komikon on April 13, 2013, Bayanihan Center in Pasig. It will then be available at branches of Comic Odyssey from then on.

Wasted was first released as an 8-issue photocopied mini comic from July 1994 to July 1996. It was compiled as a complete book by Alamat Comics in 1998. It was serialized monthly (an issue each month) in PULP Magazine, and then compiled once again as "The Final Edition", also by PULP.

Warren Ellis Wasted Review from 1998

"A recent graphic novel of note, by Filipino writer/artist Gerry Alanguilan. A marvellous little black book of lost love, unhinged hatred for everything everywhere, and making things right using only guns. Early work by a potentially brilliant creator."
