Pedrito Reyes : ウィキペディア英語版
Kulafu
Kulafu was one of the earliest comic book heroes in the Philippines. Created on July 7, 1933 by Filipino illustrator Francisco Reyes and Filipino writer Pedrito Reyes, Kulafu appeared on the first colored adventure strip and the first two-page comic strip in the Philippines, under the same title.〔Patajo-Legasto (2008) Philippine Studies: Have We Gone Beyond St. Louis? UP Press ISBN 9789711550974〕
==Plot==
The storyline about Kulafu was influenced by Tarzan, a character created by Edgar Rice Burroughs.〔(Kulafu, by Francisco Reyes. )〕 The story of Kulafu started when a toddler named "Pido" was snatched by a gigantic bird called "Ibong Malta" from his human mother while she was doing the laundry at a nearby river. Pido was brought to the Ibong Malta's nest to become the meal of the bird and her mate. The male Ibong Malta became impatient and tried to devour Pido right away which resulted to a fight between the two gigantic birds. Pido was accidentally hit by one of the bird's wing and fell from the nest. As he fell, the child was able to grab hold to one of the eggs of the Ibong Malta. Luckily, Pido fell on the branches of a big tree which cushioned his fall. Pido was retrieved by a band of white apes who planned to have Pido as their meal. However, a female ape intervened and saved Pido. Eventually, the egg of the Ibong Malta that Pido grabbed hatched and became Pido's pet. Pido considered the bird as his brother and became his constant companion ever since. When Pido's Ibong Malta grew to adulthood, it provided Pido with air transportation.
The name Kulafu was coined by a civilized man (not a woman as previously stated) named Magat whom Pido saved from being devoured by a shark (not a cayman as previously claimed). Magat witnessed a conversation between Guna, Pido's pet monkey and Pido's Ibong Malta. Guna uttered the sound "Kula" repeatedly and the Ibong Malta answered back uttering the sound "fu" also repeatedly. Because of the combined sounds made by the monkey Guna and the Ibong Malta, Magat concluded that Pido's name was "Kulafu".
Kulafu was raised by the ape who saved him. He grew up to in the jungles of Southern Philippines during the pre-Spanish era. Kulafu’s adventures included battling mythical creatures such as dragons and mermen (known as ''siyokoy'' in Tagalog), among others.
Kulafu's garment was made from the skin of a tiger. This story is impossible since no tigers are found in the Philippines. According to the story, the Sultan of Borneo gave a tiger as a gift to the Sultan of the island where Kulafu dwells. The tiger escaped and was killed by Kulafu in an encounter. Kulafu's friend Magat helped him create a garment made from the skin of the tiger.
