Cimarronin #1 – Action-packed historical fiction at its finest

Posted on 22/03/201523/12/2017 by Naop

It’s one of those nights. I have so many things in my to-do list that I’m having trouble figuring out what to do first. And all of a sudden, while casually browsing Comixology, one of their sales piqued my interest. A series titled “Cimarronin”, with the catchphrase “A Samurai in New Spain” and a synopsis that promised samurai, Jesuit priests, Spanish dukes, African slaves and Manchu princesses on adventure from Manila to Mexico (New Spain).

Check out the rest of the album, it’s beyond awesome.

Contrary to what you might be thinking, this post is not a test.

It’s a post about posts. A post about the posts in a blog, which in turn is about me. Are you confused yet? That’s a good sign.

To write a post for a blog (read: to be a “blogger”) might sound like a somewhat archaic concept, specially in the days of facebook statuses and tweets. But it only takes a look around the more specialized communities on the Internet to discover that there is a whole world out there, full of blogs that work, satisfying needs of all kinds. That is ideally how the web should work, don’t you think? With the primary objective of satisfying people’s needs. Everything else, everything secondary, is pure banality.
