And since Kapitan Boom guested on ASAP '08, I took screencaps of him, for we might not see him again anymore (aside from the pilot episode of Varga, that is).

Varga Launch
Varga, the new fantasy adventure series presented on Komiks, was launched on today's episode of ASAP '08. It features Mariel Rodriguez who plays the title, and real life boyfriend Zanjo Marudo as the love interest. Varga will pre-empt Kapitan Boom! but it was said that the two superheroes will meet on the pilot episode of Varga this Saturday, August 2, 2008.

Bye Bye Boom, Hello Varga
Kapitan Boom will have its final episode tonight, July 26, 2008. Jon Avila's fans will miss seeing those muscles, but he can still be seen via ASAP every Sunday noon.
Kapitan Boom will be replaced by another Mars Ravelo classic, Varga. Varga is very much like Darna, the ultimate creation of Ravelo. Varga was created in 1947 and appeared in Bulaklak magazine. The writer later transferred to Pilipino Komiks and his Varga became Darna. Copyright issues, perhaps, and he wasn't able to bring Varga along with him to another publication.
Varga will be played by Mariel Rodriguez, who has done more hosting than acting jobs. Will her Varga be a hit? We'll soon find out.
