Description
Kajo Baldisimo deserves to be known by everyone. He's a Filipino artist who drew Trese, a horror-based manga that is currently being adapted into an Anime series by Netflix.

Kajo did this illustration for fun in his spare time. It's composed of 9 main settings, with each setting drawn in 4 sheets, depicting Batman in a Manila setting and going with/against against creatures that are part of Philippine mythology. The composition of each piece is brilliant, but becomes even more breath-taking when seen together to form one piece.

Total size is a monster at 43x62", made up of 36 sheets measuring a little over 7x10" each.

if anyone is interested in Kajo's art, go to www.nextcomicart.com and reach out to Jiggy.

Thanks Jiggy!

Thanks James.  The compositional planning to execute this whole thing is simply mind-boggling.

Oh man!  Not familar with this artist but I guess I should get acquainted!  Unreal.  So much detail in each individual piece and combining to make a Bat head shot?!  Woo-wee.  Can't believe it's 36 sheets.  BIG congrats, Jay!

KaJO needs to get a Batman series.  This is mind boggling to view.  It is a treat examining each piece.  The top right Batman...wow.  The centerpiece Batman is incredible and captures Batman perfectly.
