National Artist in Literature F. Sionil Jose wrote a highly thought provoking essay entitled “Why We Are Hungry?” I suggest readers to read this why indeed we are still “hungry”. I bring this up because the creative team behind Patay Kung Patay actually delivers what “hungry” can do in the most extreme case of socioeconomic meltdown and survival scenario. Issue number three nails the apocalyptic feel when the members of the country’s high society finally come face-to-face with their worst nightmare ever. Say it this is what “social justice” should be in the most gruesome fashion yet. The rich and the powerful finally meet their match; and the oppressed and the marginalized are now welding the intoxicating notion that is “power” in the rawest, if not the purest, form so far. The creative team seems to channel its disgust of anything “burgis”/”elit” in this latest chapter that demands our attention.
