For up to date news on my comic stuff AND day to day MADness, just check out my blogs at www.angelace.com/blog or gregorthewolf.blogspot.com!
While the next Angel Ace issue is still quite a ways off since we're giving Angel time off, our favorite femme fatale assassin is finally getting more much-deserved exposure. Despite (or is it because of) events in Angel Ace Next, Kai Mishima will be getting her own book entitled K.I.A! The title will be our biggest project yet- an anthology that mixes elements from Aeon Flux, Danger Girl, Elektra, Le Femme Nikita, Kill Bill and ALIAS, with liberal helpings of fan service. Yep, it's going to be FUN. Even better, we're bringing together some of the best names in local comics to contribute art and even pages for this hot title. Look for K.I.A. to burn up the comic shelves by mid-2004. Later! -MAD
ANGEL ACE NEXT is now available at all Comic Quest branches. Get your copy NOW!
The next issue of Angel Ace picks up months later. Angel's settled down to a quiet life in Newhaven with her friends and her dog. Nothing could be better... but who's that shadowy, SKULL-MASKED figure watching over them from the darkness? The Sorcerer returns in ANGEL ACE JET! Coming in 2004. LATER!
ANGEL ACE NEXT will be available this weekend (Dec. 13-14)at the 2nd Annual Comics, Anime and Toys Convention (C3Con).
The 80-page special continues the adventures of Angela Gale AKA Angel Ace, her friends and not-friends in this action-adventure/comedy-romance manga. Angel Ace Next will feature the artistic talents of yours truly as well as Honoel Ibardolaza of Homanga, Variable Edge's Jon Mallari and US-based indie artist Jeremy Arambulo. Aside from the various stories, there are a load of fan and guest art, pinups and a fanga to be seen and enjoyed.
PLUS!!! There will be freebies for early birds. The first 50 Angel Ace Next copies will come with beautifully-colored photoprints of SWEET AND LOVELY ANGEL and FIERCE AND SEXY KAI, as well as a cool ad/preview for next year's K.I.A. Special.
SEEYA AT THE CON!!! ^_^
ANGEL ACE NEXT this DECEMBER!
Watch out for the latest and BIGGEST Angel Ace issue ever, clocking in at 80 pages.
We'll be revealing some startling events after the end of Angel Ace Again, as well as have a look at the behind-the-scenes villains of AA, the Gallowglass Mass Industries corporation.
Angel Ace Next features three stories drawn by some extremely talented guest artists.
THE CODE features regular AA contributor Jon Mallari, telling a flashback story of Angel and Kai when they were both SIVA cadets in training.
THE GIFT is drawn by Jeremy Arambulo, a US-based indie comic artist. This comedic tale shows Mike and Rip trying to find a gift for their favorite house guest. Features the return of a long-awaited character to the series!
and finally, MALL WRATH is drawn by Homanga's Honoel Ibardolaza. A remake of the Night Flight story that appeared in the original Angel Ace#2, this story is about Angel's 'sleepflying' habit which has an unfortunate effect of landing her in some uncomfortable situations- namely a criminal-infested strip mall!
Angel Ace Next will also feature fan art, pinups, character art and more!
Watch out for Angel Ace Next. COMING THIS DECEMBER! Later! ^_^
HELLO! Well, we did say we would try to fix the funding problem, did we? Well... We DID! Haha! Barring any HUGE money expenditures, the Next Angel Ace issue (entitled Angel Ace Next... hehe) is a go! Now all that is left is to bring together the finished pages, lay it all out, fashion a cover and back cover and then find a good printing house. We're pulling out all the stops for this one; we want it to come out perfect!
Anyway, NEXT will directly tie in with the end of the Angel Ace Again story arc, and pretty much tie up the loose ends we left hanging (DId we?). Also, there will be two cool and action-packed backup stories, featuring the artistic talents of Jon Mallari (who's been with us since the first issue of Again) and 'fake' manga artist/writer extraordinaire, Honoel Ibardolaza! Honoel (or HAI) has collaborated with me on some recent projects for Psicom; Game Girl for Hainaku 3 and Beach Blossoms for the upcoming Cherry Blossom High manga anthology. He's one of the best local comic artists I know, and easily the best one I know and HAVE NOT MET IN PERSON. Heh.
We're shooting for a release of Angel Ace NEXT in time for the upcoming C3Con this December. WAIT FOR IT!
And finally, we may be seeing a new look to the site, as we try to update everything in line with the new issue and other stuff.
WHEW! Lotsa stuff. We're still alive and kicking, aren't we? WOOHOO! Later! ^_^
Hello! Good news and bad news. The bad news first. Still not finished with the next Angel Ace issue. Pencils are done, but we are holding back on the inks and production until we fix the problem of funding. Steps to pay for Angel Ace Next's printing are being taken, rest assured. We still hope to come out with an issue within the year.
As for the Good News, HAINAKU #3 is now OUT! This local manga collection zine from PSICOM features a lot of my stuff, including my new creation GAME GIRL, which is drawn by Homanga.com's incomparable Honoel Ibardolaza. Also in Hainaku is KC STRANGE, from the mind of Kestrelstudios' Nikki Alfar, and from the pencils, inks and PC of Yours Truly. And finally, there's a TEXTMEN episode courtesy of Nikki, creator Jason Banico and artist Armand Roy Canlas (Armor Troopers).
HAINAKU #3 is now available at Comic Quest branches, National Bookstore and various magazine stands/shops for Php 75.00. Get your copy NOW!
Aside from that, I am also doing various other manga projects, both online and printed. Stay tuned for more news by logging onto my blogs at www.angelace.com/blog (Stark Raving MAD) and gregorthewolf.blogspot.com (Lone Wolf and Cherub).
That's that for now. LATER! -Marc D.
I'm one year older and a bit wiser. And we're still working on the next Angel Ace issue. In the meantime though, you can check out my other comic stuff that's coming out very soon. Nikki Alfar's K.C. Strange and my own new creation, GAME GIRL, will be appearing in the third issue of HAINAKU!, from Psicom Publishing. It should be out in magazine stands, comic book shops and bookstores this coming July... just look out for the cover by Yours Truly! We'll be coming out in another Manga Anthology thing soon as well.
As for Angel Ace NEXT, we're still working on getting it out within the year. Suffice to say we're working on making it really worth the long wait. Heh.
Keep tuning into my manga creator blog at LONE WOLF AND CHERUB (gregorthewolf.blogspot.com) for up-to-date entries on my stuff and other funny tidbits. Later then!
-MARC D.
Hello! Some updates!
Anyone wanting to monitor the progress of the latest Angel Ace issue need only visit my new blog at gregorthewolf.blogspot.com. It's entitled LONE WOLF AND CHERUB, and it will specifically contain developments in my work as a manga artist/creator and independent comic producer. Included will be progress reports on the current Angel Ace issue, new comic projects and indie comics news, creative discussions with my friends in the Questventures and Alamat Comic Groups, new storylines and ideas that come into my mind and more stuff. Check it out!
Of course, putting up LWAC meant we had to replace Straight From the Angel's Mouth; anyway, Angel decided she was really just 'too nice' to be a serious anime reviewer, and she's pretty busy these days with the comics. Rest assured, she'll be popping in from time to time at LONE WOLF, and maybe even Rip or Kai too. Heh.
Anyway, the current Angel Ace ish has finally entered the INKING stage. The issue currently stands at 64 pages. This is going to be a stand-alone issue, so we're working to make it great. That's that for now.
LATER!
Marc D.
Hello! Some good news and more good news! First, we've finally firmed up the content of the next Angel Ace issue. Sad to say, the large anthology we were planning has been pushed back, but the issue that's coming is worth it. The one-shot story happens right after the end of the Again story arc; Angel has decided to stay in Newhaven for a while with Mike and Rip. Unfortunately, a certain masked madman has returned, seeking vengeance. Yep, it's The Sorcerer (So SOON?!), and when he learns that Angel is still alive, he ups the ante and comes back with quite a few new and deadly toys to even the odds...
Pencils are almost done at the time of this writing, and soon inking will be carried out. We are planning to release this within the next few months. Wait for it!
Next, Angel has a BLOG! Yep, if you want to see Angel rant and rave about anime, all you need do is go visit her web log at http://angelace.blogspot.com!
That's that! Till next time! -MARC D.
Hello! Sorry I haven't been able to update. That's the trouble when you don't know crap about web maintenance. Oh well. Anyway, the latest Angel Ace news! The next Angel Ace issue, entitled ANGEL ACE NEXT, will be an anthology of various stories about each of the characters. Contributing art and writing chores will be several talented people I have the pleasure of knowing; Arnold Arre (Trip to Tagaytay), Dean and Nikki Alfar (The Lost, Textmen), Vinnie Simbulan(ISAW At Iba Pa), Carlo Vergara (Zsa Zsa Zaturnnah), Jason Banico (Baylans, Textmen), Tony Bucu (P-Noise) and more.
Aside from these, the issue will reveal what happened after the fateful night at the Circus in Angel Ace Again, and segue into the next major story. There will also be tons of art and character designs and in-depth info on the Angel Ace world. Yep, it's not only an anthology but The Official Angel Ace Guide/Sourcebook.
We're shooting for a release within the year. Keep your fingers crossed! Anyway, for the latest news on Angel Ace developments and news on my life, you can visit my blogs at www.angelace.com/blog (Stark Raving MAD) and madaboutanime.blogspot.com (MADabout Anime).
That's that for now. Later then! -MARC D.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
We've got a lot to look forward to this year, including a NEW ANGEL ACE issue! That's a promise, we WILL see a new comic starring Angel and the gang THIS year. Anyway, we had a great past year 'vacation' in the meantime, capped by a very successful First Philippine Anime and Comics Convention. The new year is upon us, so live it up! -Marc D.
Happy New Year, Everyone!
Well, while we may have skipped a year before releasing a new ANGEL ACE issue, we will DEFINITELY see a new comic THIS year. Just wait for it. Anyway, we had a great time in 2002 regardless, culminating in the First Philippine Anime and Comics Convention. Great stuff and fun things are to come soon, so please keep visiting and heading on over to the Anime Ace boards or to my blog, STARK RAVING MAD at www.angelace.com/blog
That's that for now. Once again, HAPPY NEW YEAR! -Marc D.
Hello!
It's been a long time since I posted here. Wow. Anyway, let's update for the people who actually come here to our homepage. The year's almost at an end, and sadly, we weren't able to make good on our promise to try and release an issue this year. Anyway, we will try again in the coming year! Never say die! A lot of other manga-style comics came out, like Armor Troopers, CHIPs and stuff... we can't stay quiet forever! Whatever happens, we'll come out with a new Angel Ace issue next year, before July 2003!
Anyway, watch out for the upcoming Philippine Manga and Comics Convention on December 21 and 22. I'll be there to talk about 'Making your own Manga'. Also, there will be some Angel Ace stuff in the ashcan that will be released during the convention. Hope it all turns out well so we can at least end the year with Angel appearing in at least one published work.
That's it! The next time we post here will probably be in 2003. Anyone who wants to have regular updates on my life is invited to reading my blog, Stark Raving MAD at www.angelace.com/blog. Funny stuff about games, movies, commuting, impulse buying watching cable and more are there everyday. And of course, our forum boards are updated with anime, manga and gaming info, as well as our DOAX Obsession board.
That's it. Till next time!

I've finally gone and said it. This website will be crucial to the future of Angel Ace because in the near future; someday... not today, not tomorrow... but someday, Angel Ace will become a webcomic. It wasn't an easy decision because I love printed comics and the feel of having a comic in my hands. But given the fact that publishing comics in the Philippines is so expensive and hard to maintain from issue to issue, this move was inevitable. So what does this mean? It means full-color Angel Ace pages updated every week/month! It means that Angel's adventures can be seen from everywhere there's a net cafe or Internet-ready PC. It means the series can continue and has a chance of seeing its eventual ending (which is still a loooong way off). This won't happen right away, of course. Another printed Angel Ace issue will come and go before this happens. When it does, Angel will be ready for the world!
On other news, I've started work on Immacolata: The Fury of Hinirang. This is an action adventure set in a fantasy-Philippines setting and stars a character created by Dean Alfar from the pages of Kestrelstudios' The Lost. Imma is yet another strong female heroine I've fallen in love with, so I hope to have fun with bringing her adventures to readers as I have done with Angel. Stay tuned for when and where Imma will hit, later this year.
That's that then. Later!
Hello! It's been quite some time since our last update, and a lot of things have happened. Anyway, aside from the tons of content we've been posting on the Anime Ace boards (including a whole new separate section for our fave upcoming game DOAX), we have to mention that our good friend and comics colleague Arnold Arre has just released another graphic opus. After Eden is a 254-page fully illustrated drama/comedy/fantasy written and drawn by Mr. Arre himself. The book is a masterpiece of complex relationships and pop culture references; a very mature and refreshing work. The book is published and released by Anino Publishin and Adarna Publications. Get your copy now at the Manila Book Fair at the Megatrade Hall at SM Megamall! (Copies will be distributed widely soon after)
On other recent comic news, ISAW At Iba Pa has been awarded Best Comic Book of 2001 in the National Book Awards! Congratulations to the whole Isaw gang are in order, including Mike Simbulan, Arnold Arre, Carlo Vergara, Dean and Nikki Alfar and other collaborators... including myself, of course!
As for Angel Ace news, we are still working on the next issue, but we have big changes and developments which will affect how we bring Angel's adventures to people in the very near future. An announcement will be forthcoming soon as we firm up our plans.
That's about it for now. Till next time! -Marc D.
Hi! Angel here!
Our first and best landing spot for comics, COMIC QUEST, will be holding a grand opening for their latest branch in Festival Mall, Alabang (Did I say that right?)! The 'ceremony' will be held on August 25; that's this coming Sunday at 2PM. Expected to be present are some of the country's best young local comic artists and creators, like Leinil Francis Yu, Gerry Alanguilan, Pol Medina Jr. (What a cute name!), Edgar Tadeo, Arnold Arre, Carlo Vergara and some bloke by the name of Marco Dimaano. Oh! Marc, that's you! I'll never get used to calling you Marco. Heehee.
Lots of comic fun, autograph signings and more are in the plans. So if you're in the area, fly on over this Sunday. Bye then! Mwah! -Angel
Hello! Things are still chugging along here. We've added a new local comics review in Anime Ace's Homemade Heroes board; this time it's the new manga zine, GROUND ZERO. Check it out! Tons more reviews and previews and stuff to read there. Still working on the next issue; pencilling and writing away. Later then!
Hello! The Anime Ace board's gotten tons of content posted in the past weeks. We've got lots of entries in the gaming and anime forums, but in particular there are exceptional posts in the Homemade Heroes forum. We've got an article on ARMOR TROOPERS, an indie manga comic by young artist Armand Canlas. I've also posted a beautiful Angel artwork by Carl Vergara (One Night in Purgatory). Lots more stuff there, so check out Anime Ace! On the issue side, Angel Ace Next is still on the pencilling stage. Still chugging along, but rest assured, we're still committed to putting out an issue before the end of the year. That's that for now. Till next time! -Marc D.
If you haven't already, click on "Anime Ace" to head on down to our boards where we'll be posting new anime and game reviews, local comics news and anything that comes to mind. Check us out for new posts and content as we'll be posting stuff often. Later then! -Marc D.
Kai has posted a lengthy and image-filled article on the popular and long-running anime series Inu Yasha in the Anime Ace anime and manga board. Check it out!
We've organized the Anime Ace forum into several sections: General Discussions, Gaming, Anime-Manga and Local Comics and Events.
New stuff at Anime Ace... I've posted art of new Angel Ace characters, plus Kai has submitted a review of the magnificent anime OAV Read or Die. Check them out at Anime Ace!
Just posted an artwork inspired by events that will happen in an upcoming Angel Ace issue on the Anime Ace board. Check it out! -Marc D.
Hello! Our ANIME ACE news/reviews/previews board is now up and running (Thanks, Cynthia Bauzon!). We're starting from scratch, so please be patient for any rough spots. Anyway, we've got some stuff up- an Xbox preview for DOAX and a debut anime review by our new reviewer, Kai! We'll be posting fun things there whenever we're able, so drop by to check it out. More reviews, plus sneak peeks at art and designs from upcoming Angel Ace issues will be posted soon.
That's that for now.
Later!
Marc D.
WOOHOO! YEEEBA! HAZAAA!
Angelace.com has now had more hits than there are islands in the Philippines!!!
Okay that's that. Back to work.
:)
Marc D.
Hello! Work is still progressing for the next Angel Ace issue, but for the most part the most development will be for the website. We'll be replacing the old Ask Angel! discussion page with a new message board that allows the posting of images. This new section will be named 'ANIME ACE' and will as before feature news, previews and reviews on anime, gaming and movies, and other odd and/or fun stuff that hits. We'll also be able to post previews of local comics and upcoming Angel Ace issues. Fan art and other contributions are also welcome.
That's that for now. Anime Ace should be up and about within the next few weeks.
Later!
Marc D.
Hello! Primary pencilling for Angel Ace Next is proceeding at a leisurely pace. Thanks to some changes in my life, we may be seeing the new issue before the year ends. As before, the next issue of Angel Ace will continue the story where we left off, right after the circus battle. I'm still studying the prospects of inviting guest artists and perhaps getting someone to do inks... though for the most part I will probably be doing the majority of the issue myself. That's that for now. Till next time!

Hello!
We've added another spot for Angel to land in! Angel Ace issues are now available at the wonderful Central Comic Headquarters at the 3rd Floor. FBR Arcade, Katipunan Road (in front of Ateneo). The beautiful and well-stocked shop is really a lovely place for manga lovers, so I am really glad Angel Ace could be found there. That's that for now... still doing new pages for the next release. Later!
-Marc D.
Hello!
I am still working on Angel Ace Next, as well as trying to get more stores to sell the books we already have released. Makati residents don't have to go all the way to Comic Quest Megamall for their Angel Ace issues...
The whole Angel Ace Again! series and even Lone Wolf and Cherub special is available at FEATA Bookstore at Makati Cinema Square. Buy one. Buy the whole set for a friend! We're working on getting the comics out to more stores, hopefully soon along Katipunan and in Greenhills.
And one last thing, I'll be at the NU107 Summer Shebang with other Alamat artists to sell comics, sketch a bit and maybe sign some copies. It'll be this coming Saturday, April 27, and I'll be there from mid-afternoon to early evening (about 3-7PM or so).
That's that for now. Later!
Marc D.
Angel Ace Next!
After the Circus Battle debacle, Angel is presumed dead... that means she's free to go anywhere she wants... or to stay anywhere she wants. A new life beckons for her in Newhaven, but will memories of her troubled past prevent Angel from ever calling any place home again? Meanwhile, we get a look at the insidious masters of the deadly SIVA... the GMI Megacorporation.
This new chapter in the Angel Ace series is still in development, but we are committed to try and release within the first half of 2002. Another issue will follow in the later half of the year. That's that.
Anyway, on other komiks news, a new local comic entitled "God Machine X" (Deus Ex Machina) is set to be released this March by a group called the Antagonists. We're looking forward to that, and other local reads with great anticipation.
Later then!
-Marc D.
IT'S 2002!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Okay, that's that.
The Angel Ace saga will definitely continue; we plan to release an issue within the first half of 2002... can't confirm a schedule yet, but it's in the works, don't worry. Basically the next issue, which will be a stand-alone story, will take up what happens after the entire Again! debacle... will Angel stay in Newhaven with Mike? What new characters will be making their AA debut/return? What happened to Kai? All these questions and more will be answered... hopefully...
Stay tuned for developments!
Anyway, it's a new year, and the possibilities are endless! Later!
-Marc D.
Happy Holidays from the Angel Ace crew!
May everyone have a merry, merry Christmas! Don't know what to give your loved ones? Grab the whole set of Angel Ace: Again! at the Comic Quest branch nearest you (shameless plug). Next year is sure to be another busy year. We will continue to bring you Angel's adventures, starting with the return of some much-missed characters from the original series. On the online side, we'll also try to bring in some new stuff to see and read on this site. If you haven't already joined or posted on Ask Angel!, please do so!
Again, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Thanks to everyone who came by and picked up a copy! What's next? Well, Angel's adventures WILL continue, but that's for next year as we let her rest after that grueling battle with Kai... For now, I'm going to be busy with Kestrelstudios' K.C. Strange!
Angel Ace Again!#1-4 is now available at Comic Quest, Megamall and SM North EDSA.
ANGEL LANDS TODAY!!! Angel Ace Again!#4 launches today! Head on over to Comic Quest Megamall this afternoon for your brand, spanking-new copy of the concluding part of the first New Angel Ace story arc!
It's been a hectic year... things happened, friendships lost and made, but all throughout we still managed to finish the run!
I would like to thank everyone who contributed, one way or another, to the completion of Again!: Mike Simbulan of Comic Quest, our No.1 supporter, sponsor, confidante, friend, critic and compatriot in the local independent comic book scene. Thanks to Arnold Arre and Cynthia Bauzon, friends and inspiration to me, Angel and Mike... Dean and Nikki Alfar of Kestrelstudios for being Angel Ace fans all the way... Carlo Vergara, friend, brother-in-pencils and taxi fare-mate; Jason Banico of Baylans for always being around to have fun and swap Baylans storylines; Tony Bucu for being the book's one-man production team; Budjette Tan and Alamat for the support and companionship, and BBDO-Guerrero Ortega, Manila's best advertising agency, for paying me...

Unfortunately, Angel and company can't come, but I'm sure they'll be there in spirit. Hopefully, the guest artists that helped put issue 4 together will be there as well to sign copies as well. See ya all there! -Marc D.
Happy Birthday to Budjette Tan! Budj is the President at gunpoint of Alamat Comics, and has been so since day one. Anything he'd want probably involves international comic book publishers or beautiful women, so if you wanna give him a birthday gift, just head on over to your local comic shop and buy a copy of Batch 72, Manila's best superhero teen barkada comic book! Happy birthday, Budj!
-Marc D.

Hello from the vegetable patch! (my room in which I am presently being immobile and unproductive as the break warrants)
As part of the launch of the momentous Issue FOUR and the completion of a whole story arc (Yipee!), we'll be giving away a little surprise for early Angel Ace fans and buyers during our launch. It'll be something free, something nice and cool. What it is? Well, you'll just have to come to our launch on November 17 to find out...

ANGEL ACE AGAIN!#4 has a launch date!!!
This November, the climactic final episode of the Again! Story arc will be available at Comic Quest, Megamall.
Angel has kicked the evil Sorcerer's butt, escaped the fiery destruction of his hideout and defeated an entire platoon of deadly SIVA ninja.
Now, only one more opponent stands between Angel and her saving the circus from the Sorcerer's doomsday bomb.
But this opponent has been waiting years for this particular battle; and she knows Angel inside out... It's Angel versus Kai, to the finish under the Big Top!
Oh, and Mike has to fight the Sorcerer in a duel too, and if he loses everyone dies even if Angel wins.
ANGEL ACE AGAIN!#4- Black and White with grayscaling, 64 pages, Php 120.00 Story and Art by Marco Dimaano, featuring Guest Artists: Arnold Arre, Carlo Vergara, Jon Mallari and Jan Aldeguer.

Alamat Comics has a new home online!Go visit www.alamatcomics.com to see the other releases under the Alamat Group of Comics, such as Batch 72, Baylans, One Night in Purgatory and more.
Angel Ace Again!#4 Status... ALL PAGES DONE! As of this moment, Issue 4 is on the print production stage. All the art is finished, so it's now all a matter of preparing it for the printers, printing, and all the stuff that's out of our hands. I am quite confident that we will make it to our projected November release. We've made it to the top of the hill! Now it's keeping steady so we don't stumble the way down... We're keeping our fingers crossed now.
Angel Ace Again!#4 Status...
All guest artist pages have now been submitted, and they are looking GREAT! To be featured in issue 4 will be pages by Jon Mallari, an up-and-coming young manga artist who's contributed to every Again! issue; Carlo Vergara of One Night in Purgatory and Arnold Arre, who did The Mythology Class and Trip to Tagaytay. The art styles are so varied and different, but all are united by their quality. I am so honored to have them grace Angel Ace.
As for me, I am doing final touches on the story, and we should be submitting the final print for issue 4 to the printers within the next two weeks. Again, we are shooting for releasing issue 4 this November.
Rip's posted some thoughts on the Blood anime, and the Throne of Darkness PC game at the Ask Angel! forum. The Ripper loves to rip into his reviews, doesn't he?
Note on Angel Ace: Again!#4: While we have a synopsis and a cover image up in the Releases section, the issue is not yet available. We are planning a release within 2001. As always, anyone sending a mail to shinangelace@hotmail will be notified via e-mail of release dates. A firm release schedule will also be posted here.
Also, corrections on issue information: Angel Ace: Again!#4 will have 64 pages, not 40. BIG climactic issue!
Welcome to the New Angel Ace website! Lots of stuff inside for you to see and read, plus you can even ask the characters themselves questions that have been bugging you ("How do you keep your hair so nice even when you're flying?"). Also up are 'lost' pages that have never seen print. Want some scantily-clad babe action? Download the Dead or Alive manga! It's all here in Angel's new landing pad! I would like to thank Cynthia Bauzon and Arnold Arre of Tala Studios for this absolutely great website. Please browse around and enjoy all the stuff. And keep tuned here on the news page for releases on Angel Ace books, Kestrelstudios, Questventures and Alamat titles.
Also, expect a few rants and random writings to appear from time to time. Okay! Enjoy the visit! -MAD |
