Written and illustrated by Joseph Caesar Sto. Domingo, Bathala debuted in Kidlat Superheroes Komiks #1 (June 21, 1993), published by Sonic Triangle Publishing, Inc.
The series deals with a super-powered alien race which crash-landed on Earth centuries ago, forming the basis for the gods and monsters of ancient mythology. In modern times, their descendants have split into 2 factions: the heroic Raja Team One and the evil Salot ("Plague").
Here's the second chapter from KSH #2 (June 28, 1993).
