Lapu-lapu Reprint and Fanart


Yumina is the the younger sister of Lapu-lapu and Arturo is one of the crew of Ferdinand Magellan



Lapu-lapu is a series in the 50's made by the Dean of the Philippine Comics. It is based on the story of Lapu-lapu the king of Mactan the first Filipino to win over the Spaniard conquerors.


LAPU-LAPU is one of the komiks novels that Francisco Coching, the Dean of Philippine Comics made. It was first published in the 1950's by Ace Publications Inc. It is based on the 1st Filipino hero of the island of Mactan. He is Lakan or the King of the island.

I really love the story and the artwork of this comics. You should read it too, I bought my copy at NBS Dagupan. One thing that i noticed is the language they used, most of the words that Mr. Coching used are words that are new to me, I mean words like "tigmak", "talaksan", "kampilan", "halaghag" etc. I enjoy learning though, you will eventually find out the meaning of those words as you go with the story. I made this fan art to show my respect to the masters of Philippine Komiks. I really hope that the reprints of the early comics by the masters will continue, I'd definitely get a copy and enjoy reading and learning.

‎100 ARAW NG KOMIKS (Day 20) KAGUBATAN (2004) Ito ang pangalawa kong entry para sa CCCom (Culture Crash Comic) 8 page comics feature. Nauna ang "Payt 4 Lab"(2003). Sayang at hinde napili ang comics ko pero oks lang, achievement pa rin sa 'kin dahil nakatapos ako ng isa ang 8 page short comics. Mabigat ang impluwensya sakin ng anime da ti, hnd ako masyadong exposed sa western comics kaya siguro. Nito na lang ako nakakapag-basa madalas ng mga western comics. Kaya ito ang naging kinalabasan ng artwork. 17 yrs old pa lang ako nung panahong ginawa kong Kagubatan, tungkol ito sa istorya ng isang prinsepeng inatasang magpunta sa kagubatan para sa isang misyon, Kung gusto nyong mabasa ang kabuuan ng komiks, abangan nyo na lamang sa susunod na komikon sa Nobiyembre, kung saan balak kong ilabas ang aking mga short komiks. Sa panahong ito ay ginagawa ko ang book 3 ng mukat komiks ko, kaya mas maayos ang art kumpara sa Payt 4 lab. Nakakatuwang balikan ang mga dati kong ginawang komik...
