A truly fascinating piece of comic-book history, this offering features an original Filipino komiks artwork page by legendary artist Nestor Redondo, one of the most important Filipino comic artists of the 20th century. Before becoming internationally celebrated for his work on DC Comics titles including Swamp Thing, Rima the Jungle Girl, House of Mystery, House of Secrets, and The Unexpected, Redondo established himself as a major force in the Philippine komiks industry. This original page presents a dramatic science-fiction/robot storyline, featuring Professor Imperial and his laboratory experiments as he works to create an advanced robotic body. The page is executed in Redondo’s distinctive detailed black-and-white linework, with multiple sequential panels, hand-lettered Filipino dialogue, narration, and dynamic character work. The reverse of the artwork bears handwritten notations including “Nestor Redondo” and “N #131,” adding an intriguing piece of provenance and historical context to this original artwork. The exact publication and story title have not been conclusively identified, making this an especially compelling opportunity for collectors and researchers of Filipino komiks and Nestor Redondo’s early career. This is not a reproduction or printed comic page this is the original artwork itself. For collectors familiar with Redondo primarily through his celebrated American comic-book work, original Filipino-period material represents a much rarer and considerably more unusual side of his artistic legacy. A genuine one-of-one piece of Nestor Redondo original art and a remarkable piece of Filipino comic-book history.
