Kalimán or Kalimán, the Incredible Man is a popular Mexican adventurer superhero created by Rafael Cutberto Navarro and Modesto Vázquez González in 1963 as the main character of a Radio drama with the same title which depicts the adventures of Kalimán, an Egyptian descendent of the Pharaohs, and his young companion Solín. Kalimán is very well known and popular across Latin America, and the radio series spawned into a comic book and a couple of movies. The adventures of Kalimán were published as a serialized weekly comic which was printed for twenty-six consecutive years, reaching its highest popularity in 1965, and it is still being quite popular today in reprints or paperbacks. Kalimán himself is considered as a Mexican pop culture icon and one of the first and most representative Mexican superheroes.

Origins and powers[edit]

Kalimán's true origin is unknown, never revealed in any media, which adds to the sense of mystery that surrounds the character. He's supposedly an Indian orphan found abandoned in a river, and adopted by prince Abul Pasha from one of the kingdoms in the Valley of Kalimantan,^[1] that he is the fifth man in a dynasty of men dedicated to preserving justice in the world, and that he is the seventh man of the goddess Kali's dynasty. He swore an oath to Kali to wander the world fighting for justice, and must return to India in order to renew the oath every seven years. However, Kalimán not only has Caucasian features, but intense blue eyes too, one of his most notorious characteristics, which only adds more mystery to his true identity. It is also frequently mentioned that he has a vast knowledge of science and arts, including fine arts, engineering, architecture, chemistry and biology.

Kalimán wears an all-white outfit (except for the reverse of his cloak, which is dark red), with just one mark: a jeweled-encased 'K' in front of his turban.^[2] Being a master of all martial arts, does not use any kind of weapons, except a blowgun with tranquilizer darts and a ceremonial dagger that complements his costume. He also possesses extraordinary mental powers: levitation, telepathy, remote viewing, telekinesis, astral projection, control of the involuntary functions of the body (which allows him to feign being dead), hypnosis, ESP and self-healing, among others. He makes clear that he does nothing that any other men would not be able to do through self-discipline, study and hard work. It is assumed that his apprentice Solín, a common boy, will eventually take his place as he learns from him.

Kalimán's dramas were a combination of Sherlock Holmes, Tin Tin and James Bond adventures, with him acting as a skilled detective, using his incredible mental abilities to solve the ongoing mysteries, but fighting spirits, monsters, supervillains organizations and supernatural threats with magic and martial arts. Kalimán himself refused to use any kind of fire guns, continuously insisting that arms in general were the last resource of the weak, although he eventually used arrows, swords or daggers to disarm his enemies.

If compared with modern day superheroes, Kalimán can be described as a combination of Marvel Comics Doctor Strange and Iron Fist.

Kalimán's main characters[edit]

Heroes

Kalimán, The Incredible Man. Initially, it is stated that Kalimán is just Solín's protector and tutor, but as the series progresses, Kalimán gradually replaced Solín as the main character. Kalimán had several popular catchphrases often used to explain his actions, but the two most relevant were 'Serenity and Patience', often told to his disciple Solín to prevent him to rush without thinking, and 'Whoever dominates the mind, dominates the world', frequently used after he succeeded in realizing an impossible feat.

Solín. An eleven year old kid, rescued from the streets of Cairo in Kalimán's first adventure. It is initially stated that the boy was 'incredibly valuable' to restore the Pharaoh's just and fair ruling in Egypt, but he needs to be trained both physically and mentally prior to reconstruct his kingdom and become a great ruler, hence the reason why Kalimán was sent to locate and protect him until the day he is ready to fulfill his destiny.

Villains Every adventure had its respective villains, who usually only appeared in that specific story and never come back, being killed, imprisoned, defeated or vanished at the end, but three of them made a notorious difference in Kalimán's universe, Black Spider, Karma and Namilak. Count Bartok, as well as battling Kaliman, also served as the host in his own title, presenting one-off horror stories, akin to Cain and Abel in DC Comics or The Crypt-keeper in Tales from the Crypt.

Black Spider. He was the most notorious exception, since he is the only one who came back regularly, both in the comic and the radio drama. He returned so frequently that at some point, was present in two different stories published at the same time. He's a super spy, like an evil James Bond, full of gadgets and mischievous plans, extremely skilled, able to escape from the most desperate situations, and possesses an enormous talent to avoid being incarcerated.

Karma. Originally he was Kalimán's rival for the Red Dragon title, which is granted by Tibetan Monks to the most perfect incarnation of a man of peace on Earth, who will become the official Protector of the World. It is stated that Karma is almost equal to Kalimán in every aspect and sense, but fails due to a minor flaw in his soul. Angered after being rejected for such insignificant detail, Karma decides to embrace that flaw and falls into darkness, becoming Kalimán's nemesis. The character was so popular that he is the only one who died and resurrected in three different occasions (all other characters that died in the series remained dead), and is considered Kalimán's most fearsome foe.

Namilak. He's initially presented as 'the reverse Kalimán', an enemy so similar to him that even have the same costume, face, voice and attitude, but everything he does is wrong, negative and impure, the exact opposite of the Incredible Man, (even his name is Kalimán spelled backwards), always dressed in a black version of the hero's costume. It is later revealed that he's in fact, the respective negative flaw of Kalimán's soul, except that instead of falling to it, like Karma did at Red Dragon's trial, he expelled it from his body long time ago. Unfortunately, as a result of this decision, the evil in his soul embodied and become a full living being, as a twisted and maniacal version of his host. Namilak's existence also explains why Kalimán is so perfect, since there's no evil or malice left in his body. Namilak's story arc is in fact, a representation of Kalimán fighting his own obscure and repressed desires.

The radio play[edit]

The radio series of Kalimán started in 1963.^[3] It was transmitted by Radio Cadena Nacional (1110 AM in Mexico City, currently known as Radio Red), a radio station dedicated to broadcast radio dramas, soap operas in the mornings adventure plays at afternoon. The show was an immediate hit, and soon was broadcast throughout the Mexican Republic. Due to its success, the radio play was redone in Colombia, broadcast by Todelar with Colombian actors.

In addition to being a co-creator of Kaliman, Navarro was also the founder of its flagship network, Radio Cadena Naciónal.

To spice up the mystery of Kalimán's true identity, the voice of the Mexican version of the radio play was done by actor Luis Manuel Pelayo, but the credit always went to 'Kalimán himself' avoiding any mention of an actor behind the radio character. At some point, many fans truly believed he was a real person, now retired, who were narrating his personal experiences with the assistance of the radio station. In Colombia, Kalimán was played by Gaspar Ospina. The radio drama has been continuously on air several times along the years in different regions of México and Latin America.

In October 2015, as part of the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the first published comic book, the last recorded adventure 'The Nefertti Necklace', never aired before in radio, began airing in MVS 102.5 FM in Mexico City, with a mix of modern production from the original recording (which presents more modern technology than the first adventures, recorded over 20 years earlier), along with most modern radio production technology of the time (2015).

Comic book adaptation[edit]

Las Aventuras De Kaliman

The popularity of Kalimán grow up so much, at the point two years later of his radio debut, it was decided to publish his adventures in comic book format by Promotora K. The comic strictly stuck to the original story at the point it never mentioned any details about Kalimán not previously mentioned in the radio drama, nor added additional information about the main character, in order to keep the same aura of mystery of the original radio play. The first issue of Kalimán written by Clemente Uribe Ugarte, was published on December 4, 1965 with the first to tenth parts of the story 'Los Profanadores de Tumbas', ('The Tomb Raiders'). 100,000 copies were sold out within that week, and due to the excessive demand, the issue had to be reprinted. The original series ran until 1991, with a total of 1,348 weekly issues.

The comic book was printed in sepia tones, with an artistic watercolor painting feeling on every page, like most of the Mexican comics of that time instead of the CMYK used in American comics. Only the cover was done in full color, but also painted with acrylics. Later special editions 'Kalicolor' and 'Kalimán de lujo' were done in full color, using the same process as in America, but they were less popular than the original magazine and never sold well. The reprints give the scripts credits to Víctor Fox (who purchased the rights of the comic), instead of Clemente Uribe.

The Kalimán comic-book was published in Colombia as well, but starting with the eleventh issue of the Mexican run, the beginning of the second story, 'The Valley of the Vampires'. The Colombian run of the comic-book lasted for more than 1206 issues. From Colombia, the comic was also exported to most South American countries, contributing to expand Kalimáns popularity across Latin America.

In 2010, the daily newspaper El Comercio de Quito, Ecuador acquired the rights to reprint Mysteries of Bonampak and The Triangle of Death as a serialized comic strip.

In the late 70's, complete stories were also published as paperbacks in a large volume format, and the first ones were also reprinted with new art, but in full color like most American comics as an independent comic title as 'Kalicolor' but the public did not accepted very well the colored versions and they didn't run for long.

Novel adaptation[edit]

On 2016, to commemorate the first 50 years of Kalimán, the first radio drama script Tomb Raiders was rewritten and adapted to a Novel format. The book also includes new illustrations specifically made for it by René del Valle, one of the artists who collaborated with the comic in its last years of publication.

Legal issues[edit]

The comic was so popular that was one of the few Mexican comics consistently sold in the United States, mostly along the states of the south, which have a large Latin American population. In 1974 Marvel Comics sued Promotora K for using 'The Incredible Man' in Kalimán's comic title, since they owned the rights of 'The Incredible Hulk', which was created and developed one year before Kalimán debuted on radio, and three years before the first comic was published. After several months, the court ruled in favor of Promotora K and stated that Marvel originally published Hulk in the comic Tales to Astonish, which changed its title to 'Incredible Hulk' until 1968, years after Kalimán was regularly distributed and sold in the United States. As a result of this ruling, Marvel Comics had to pay royalties to Promotora K for legally using 'Incredible' in Hulk's titles. After the announcement was done, Promotora K made mock up covers of Kaliman featuring several popular Fantastic Four characters threatening Kalimán, although after being published, the company declared those were 'tributes' to Marvel.

Movies[edit]

Due to the popularity of the character, two movies were produced in Mexico with Canadian actor Jeff Cooper as Kalimán. His voice was dubbed by Luis Manuel Pelayo, who was the actor who played the role of Kalimán in the Radio Play to make it match with the sound that was so familiar to the radio audience.

The first movie, Kalimán, el Hombre Increíble (Kalimán, the Incredible Man) (1972), was filmed entirely on location in Egypt. It had an international cast, from US, México, Spain, Italy and Egypt. The movie is loosely based on the first story, Los Profanadores de Tumbas (The Tomb Raiders), but adding a science fiction theme. For almost 20 years, it held the title of the most expensive Mexican movie ever filmed. It was a huge success, being in theaters for more than a year.^[4] The original running time was up to 180 minutes, but was cut down to 109 for later TV release.

The second film was Kalimán en el Siniestro Mundo de Humanón (Kalimán in the Sinister World of Humanón) (1976), based on the adventures from radio and comic of the same title, and was filmed on location in Brazil and México. It was less successful than the first one, though, and for some time there were no plans for other movies based on the character.^[5]

As of 2011, there have been plans for a third movie, with the working title of Kalimán Regresa (Kalimán Returns), but they have been on hold due to copyright issues. In 2015, it was finally announced that José Ángel Medina was the legal owner of all the character copyrights. Medina also stated he was negotiating with Marvel Comics a deal about reprinting the comic, but also including an option to produce a movie.^[6]
