If Interior Chinatown had a three-way with Goodfellas and Fight Club at Comic-Con, their bastard child would be Suspicious Activity.
A gritty Filipino-American noir that blurs the line between crime fiction and graphic storytelling.
Suspicious Activity follows Bingo, an accountant for an Asian-American mafia run by Filipino-Americans in Southern California’s San Gabriel Valley. Haunted by greed, violence, and paranoia, his story dives deep into identity, loyalty, and survival in the underworld.
Written and illustrated by Nathan Cayanan, a DC Comics Milestone Initiative alum, this hybrid novel/graphic novel merges cinematic prose with sharp sequential art like if Interior Chinatown had a three-way with Goodfellas and Fight Club at Comic-Con.

Let customers speak for us
Very short and sweet story about the importance of apologizing and forgiveness to teach very early on as well as teaching simple phrases and names for family members in Tagalog
Powerful storytelling with beautiful art. Very happy with the work of Ebony Soy and the delivery by Hot Tropiks. Also loved the additional content in the Hot Tropiks release!

I love the quality of the graphics and the material for the t-shirt! You know it's not going to rip or fade!! My request is to bring back the Hard Mode T-Shirt! Missed the opportunity to get one!!! Thank you!
Above and beyond all expectations. Read it all in one sitting and couldn't put it down. Highly recommend! Plus there's a very fun bonus at the back of the book.

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.

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.
