hey i posted that first. darna was created during the golden age
of filipinjo comics by mars ravelo[ ? ] /. she is the filipino
version of wonder woman. but instead of being powerful all the time
darna need to swallow a magic stone and yell darna before she could
become a superhero. the stone is based on anting anting stories of
prehispanic philippines.
her sidekick is her young brother ding who has no power.


zsazsa zaturna is the gay version. but he came lately

Anting-anting:

Everywhere I go, when I started wearing what my wife gave me I got wows from Mexicans as well as other Southeast Asians, everyone having different cultures, religion and background commenting on its "Power" in protecting the wearer, including the little red bag of "Medicine".

Sometimes I wonder, how this ended up to be like so, is anting-anting not just a Filipino thing?
