Kalimán
''Kaliman'' is a popular Mexican comic book superhero created by Rafael Cutberto Navarro and Modesto Vázquez González. He is very famous across Latin America. The ''Kaliman'' comic depicts the adventures of Kaliman and his young companion Solín, an Egyptian boy who is descended from Pharaohs. Their adventures generally take place in exotic locations. Kaliman started as a radio show in 1963, from which the comic book series was born. The comic was printed weekly for twenty-six years, reaching its highest popularity in 1965.
== Origins and powers ==
Kaliman's origin is unknown, which adds to the sense of mystery that surrounds the character. What we know is that he is an Indian orphan adopted by prince Abul Pasha from one of the kingdoms in the valley of Kalimantan,〔Gravett, Paul, "1001 Comics You Should Read Before You Die", Universe, 2011, page 267.〕 that he is the fifth man in a dynasty of men dedicated to preserving justice in the world, and that he is the seventh man of the goddess Kali's dynasty. He swore an oath to Kali to wander the world fighting for justice, and must return to India in order to renew the oath every seven years.
Kaliman wears an all-white outfit with one mark: the jeweled-encased "K" he wears in his turban.〔Gravett, Paul, "1001 Comics You Should Read Before You Die", Universe, 2011, page 267.〕 He does not use weapons, except a blowgun with tranquilizer darts and a ceremonial dagger that complements his costume. He is a master of martial arts, science and arts. He also possesses extraordinary mental powers: levitation, telepathy, remote viewing, telekinesis, astral projection, control of the involuntary functions of the body (which allows him to feign being dead: what he calls "actus mortis"), hypnosis, and self-healing, among others. He makes clear that he does nothing that any other men would not be able to do through self-discipline, study and hard work.
