Maloles: The Reckoning Vol. 1 is a dark Filipino fantasy graphic novel that shatters tradition. Created by Filipina artist Ebony Soy, this powerful debut blends pre-colonial mythology, ancestral rituals, and psychological horror into a story of destruction and defiance. Maloles, a divine weapon born to serve the Underworld, chooses to destroy it instead. Set in a world inspired by Filipino spiritual beliefs—but not bound to folklore—this book dives deep into rage, identity, and the cost of choosing your own path. With bold black-and-white artwork and unflinching storytelling, Maloles is perfect for readers craving dark, original narratives that explore cultural roots and personal rebellion. Printed in the USA and published by Hot Tropiks Press, this is the first volume in a planned trilogy. For fans of Filipino comics, indie horror, and stories that challenge the norm, Maloles is a must-read.

I absolutely loved the story of the first generation child of an immigrant family. It was rather enlightening as the author truly shows how immigrants are an integral part in society. Always have. Always will be.
Perfect gift for my chef nephew! So much cool stuff in general in the shop. Fast easy shipping too.
Excellent quality and very fast delivery.

Thanks Mr. Ocampo for this amazing survey, I read it almost all in one sitting--spooky, interesting, scary, and thought-provoking. A great read!

Very good story pero a bit short. Could have benefited from a bit more backstory on the husband's motivations as well as following some of his actions.
Great customer service.
Cant wait for the next volume!

Perfect gift for my video game loving brother!
Got this for a coworker who keeps talking about supot and this is it. It's her favorite work tote and I'm all here for it. I even got one for myself but in black.
If you say it wrong it means something else, but let's not go there...
The book arrived on time and without any problems. The book came with the original plastic wrapping and was extra wrapped with bubble wrap for protection during shipping. I got frequent email updates about my order which was helpful. The book itself is wonderful and I’m glad I ordered it through Hot Tropiks and supported a small business.
