"DEPIKTO" by Ruvel Abril is a masterful psychological horror graphic novel that ensnares the reader in the unsettling world of Paco Lazaro. Upon receiving an invitation to an art exhibit, Paco finds himself confronted with paintings that eerily depict private moments from his own life. With each piece he encounters, the line between reality and art blurs, sending him down a spiral of doubt about his memories and sanity.
As Paco navigates the labyrinthine corridors of the exhibit, the question of who—or what—is orchestrating these mind games becomes increasingly desperate. The narrative deftly combines elements of mystery and psychological thriller, creating a tense atmosphere that compels readers to question what is real alongside the protagonist.
Ruvel Abril's dual role as both writer and illustrator for "DEPIKTO" allows for a seamless integration of story and visuals, with each page meticulously crafted to enhance the suspense and emotional impact of the tale. The graphic novel's recognition as an Official Selection of the 1st Philippine International Comics Festival underscores its excellence in storytelling and artistry.
Published by KOMIKET INC. in 2023 and available in English, "DEPIKTO" offers 158 pages of full-color illustrations that bring the chilling narrative to life. The book's dimensions (15.25 x 22.75 x 1cm | 6 x 9 x 0.3in) and weight (0.3kg) make it an inviting read, perfect for those who are drawn to stories that delve into the complexities of the human psyche and the shadows that lurk within our memories.
For fans of psychological horror and mystery, "DEPIKTO" is a compelling journey into a world where art and reality collide with potentially sinister implications. Abril's work is a testament to the power of graphic novels to explore deep, unsettling themes with intensity and nuance, making "DEPIKTO" a must-read for those who crave stories that linger long after the last page is turned.
Let customers speak for us
from 84 reviewsLoved it so much i bought another Because I lost some weight. Love the designs and hope some new ones come out for me to buy
The beautiful cover illustration of Zsazsa Zaturnnah drew me in and the pages of dialogue kept me hooked! This has been the MOST FUN I've had reading comics in ages! I began reading it as soon as I bought it at the Liwanag Litfest in Long Beach. I was cackling with laughter all by myself and I didn't care if people were staring at me! My family was laughing with me as I read them excerpts of the dialogue! Aside from the funny antics, there's also themes of friendship, love (of self, of neighbors and romantic love) and believing in one's self. I'm glad I brought Zsazsa Zaturnnah into my life!
Fits good. It's part of my disguise when I'm deep in the country. Material is like any other hat
yaaaas!
Its good i like it so much even the story and art is good i hope something new this coming year im a pinoy an proud for being Filipino
My daughter saw the book when I opened the package after work. Started reading it at night and finished the first 7 chapters before bedtime then finished the rest of the book the next day! Now she's asking to buy the next book. :)
I love learning about different mythology and to do it through graphic novels was awesome. Also, I love to support small businesses, so no brainer. I was happy to discover this shop and will be happy to purchase more in the future.
I actually bought this as a gift for someone and they love it.
I love my Aswang Adventure Club bag. I can wait for my mom to see it and say,"Oh No!"
very accommodating, quality of the product is good
I know the description said it’s for older kids, but my spooky little Pinoy can't get enough of the art and the stories. As someone who grew up very disconnected from my heritaa fun way for my sons and me to get caught up. Maraming Salamat 🫶🏼
