ANGEL LOCSIN Will Play Varga, the first Darna?

Rumor has it that Angel Locsin�s next project in the kapamilya network is the tv remake of another Mars Ravelo�s super heroine named 'Varga', considered as one of the first pinoy komiks superheroes.

Actually, Varga is the first Darna. According to Pilipino Komiks:

"In July of 1947, Mars Ravelo created Varga in Bulaklak Magazine. Varga was actually the first Darna, and she also had an alter-ego named Narda. When Ravelo left Bulaklak and was hired in Ace Publications, he re-created Varga and renamed her Darna.

In 1950, Darna appeared in Pilipino Komiks, re-created by Mars Ravelo and superbly illustrated by Nestor Redondo. The first story of Darna tells of her battles against the evil Valentina."

Here is a photo of the original Varga comics courtesy of Pilipino Komiks:

Guess is as good as mine, Varga is set to compete with GMA 7�s 'Captain Barbell Meets Darna'. Abangan!
