My partner is Filipino so I have a quirky interest in Filipino Superheroes. Darna is probably the most beloved Filipino super hero (aside from Manny Pacquiao!). Created in 1950, spanning a number of comic series, tv and movies - she's arguably more successful than her American counterpart, Wonder Woman!
When everyday plain Jane, Narda swallows a magic rock she tunes into the manifestation of a deceased intergalactic warrior - Darna!
