A new brand of superhero from the rich lore of Philippine myth! In
this spellbinding action-adventure from Arnold Arre--the great
master of the graphic novel, the age-old divide between good and
evil widens. Catch a glimpse of a Manila privy to only a few of the
supernatural and magically inclined, while following a superhero
born and raised by its streets in The World of Andong Agimat. In a
world yearning for stability, a renegade force arrives, spreading
chaos amidst the populace in the form of a gruesome plague. This is
when the world needs Andong Agimat--an ex-gang leader turned
vigilante with superpowers bestowed unto him by his mysterious
amulet. He cooperates with the police and helps them keep Manila's
underground, steeped-in magic and the supernatural, in check, but
the people of Manila live in growing fear as acts of terrorism are
committed by a cult growing within the city. Follow Andong as he
uncovers this violent cult's scheme, which threatens the very
balance of the world. He trudges through the underbelly of Manila,
teaming up with old friends, and even old rivals, to put an end to
this cult's evil plans. Can Andong Agimat and his talisman's secret
powers repel the forces of chaos?
