PINOY KOMIKS MADE INTO MOVIES #1

Kampanerang Kuba (1973)- Vilma Santos' movie
based from a Pinoy komiks novel by Pablo S. Gomez
which was later made into a teleserye.

Through the years, particularly in the 1950s to 1990s, komiks became so popular that many serial novels and komiks series were later adapted and made into movies. Some of the biggest box-office blockbusters came from komiks materials. Mars Ravelo, Francisco V. Coching, Nestor Redondo, Pablo S. Gomez and Carlo J. Caparas were among of the most widely read and prolific komiks writers whose wide range of creativity and imagination gave birth to numerous komiks stories and novels which became the basis of some of the most unforgettable and memorable films in Philippine cinema. Movies such as Darna, Captain Barbell, Bakekang, Kampanerang Kuba, Ang Panday, Totoy Bato were all money earners.
