Francisco V. Coching's EL INDIO
Written and illustrated by komiks legend Francisco V. Coching, El Indio was serialized in Pilipino Komiks (published at the time by Ace Publications, Inc.) from 1952 to 1953. The sequel to Coching's 1951 serial Ang Barbaro (a.k.a.

A film adaptation was released in 1953.
