I was rummaging through my father in law Rudy Florese's comics treasure chest when I saw these pictures of komiks writers and artists at Fernando Poe Jr's birthday party at his home. I'm not sure when these were taken, I suppose it was sometime in the late 70's, more likely early 80's. It's pretty much an all star cast including Larry Alcala, Francisco V. Coching, Tony and Damy Velasquez, Menny Martin, Rudy himself and of course FPJ. Can anyone help me identify the others in these pictures?  Rudy Florese on the far left. FPJ of course seated in the center.  From left in the red shirt is Larry Alcala, Jim Fernandez, FPJ, Tony Velasquez, Damy Velasquez  Francisco V. Coching standing, second from right. That guy in front definitely looks drunk. For a larger version of the last photo, click HERE. ****************** SIGLO: PASSION Update!
