    Back when I was a clinical intern, a required extra year of clinical rotations before taking the physician's licensure examination, I used to think of lunchtime as a nice break from the stress within the wards.
    As an intern in the hospital I was matched to, I wasn't receiving any pay, but I did get three free meals a day!  So if we weren't needed anywhere, my fellow interns and I along with the hospital staff would troop on over to the mess hall to get our free grub.  Perks of working ...

Today I received a wonderful surprise through Facebook:


Dr. Rianne Nicah and Ling Duck by Christian Kaw

    I was a huge fan of Heavy Metal magazine back in the day when it was readily available in magazine stores in my country.  It introduced me to the fantasy comic genre and to numerous artists who would later on inspire and influence me in my own craft, most notably Massimiliano Frezzato, who is to this day my favorite comic artist.
    It's memories of those days of reading the magazine that...

Crazy Metro's Ernest John Daryll Fiestan follows up his previous guest comic strip for Callous with this one!  With all the roasted fowl present, it's probably best that Cal is in Peanut Butter heaven elsewhere... albeit in the thoughts of one JV!

Ernest seems to be having a lot of fun with this multi-series crossover.  In the middle frame, he features yours truly in a came...

This guest comic strip is by Ernest John Daryll Fiestan!  I consider it a joy to meet fellow webcomic artists from my own country and Ernest was gracious enough to lend his great art skills to Callous in this guest comic strip!

Ernest writes and illustrates the webcomic Crazy Metro which is about five guys who live in an apartment experiencing life's ups and downs and brav...

Guest Comic Strip by Steve Brute

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Monday, September 27, 2010,
Yipes! This creepy guest comic strip is by Steve Brute, the man behind the Frightfully Shocking Tales of Spoons comic!  Thanks Steve!

It must be said, his comic is not suitable for people under the age of 15!  Be warned, naughty language, some violence, and general horror await you there!  At the proper age and still up for it?  Great!  Check out this chilling, suspense-filled and fun comic!
