Ang Barbaro (literally, "The Barbarian" in English), is a Tagalog-language graphic novel by legendary Filipino komiks artist, and National Artist for Visual Arts, Francisco V. Coching. It was originally serialised in local komiks magazine Pilipino Komiks from the late 1940s to early 1950s, and adapted to film by the studio Sampaguita Pictures in 1952. In 2016, on the heels of Coching's posthumous awarding as National Artist, the entire run was eventually published in a single bound volume.Sometimes also called "Sabas, ang Barbaro", as Sabas is the eponymous Barbaro's actual name. The graphic novel establishes him as a dutiful, honest, and hardworking peasant youth living with his father and mute sister in a typical rural Luzon town in the mid-19th century, in the late-Spanish-colonial Philippines. Sabas shows promise as a young student, and to that end the kindly Spanish friar of his town pays for his Manila studies out-of-pocket; but while there, the brutal realities of Spanish colonialism hit hard: his father is killed, his sister is raped and dies by suicide soon afterward, and the greedy and cruel Small-Town Tyrant refuses to allow them a proper burial, and certainly not on his land. When Sabas finds this out and returns home, he is arrested and tortured by colonial cops for attempting to come to their defence, and his friar patron is too weak to do much about it either, appealing to colonial authorities in vain.With his entire support structure dead in short order, Sabas escapes incarceration, frees the colonial state's other prisoners, takes up his father's hat and arms himself with a sharp blade. Henceforth, he is Barbaro, defender of the land's poor and oppressed, and feared, sworn enemy of abusive colonisers.Also spawned a sequel, El Indio, which involves Barbaro's son with Blanquita, who is born and raised in Spain but comes to the Philippines to learn more of his parentage whilst also experiencing colourist and classist discrimination from whiter and more elite Spaniards. | |

Good is Not Nice: Barbaro is a hero Just Like Robin Hood to the poor and oppressed, but at the same time he can be very vindictive towards the cruel and abusive of power. | |

Engineered Heroics | |
| Ang Barbaro (Comic Book) / int_2200d9ec | comment |
Engineered Heroics: Played with. In one chapter, Barbaro and his allies let loose a carabao (water buffalo) with a bandit victim tied to its back to rampage in the nearby forest and terrify their captive friar into line. The rampage disrupts the convoy that happens to be carrying Blanquita and the Spanish crown envoy, and so when Barbaro ends up rescuing them by calming their carriage horses, technically he appears heroic to Blanquita for saving her from a crisis he himself instigated. (He quickly admits it though, which immediately enrages Blanquita to the point of trying to shoot him.) | |

Just Like Robin Hood: Barbaro's role as defender of the oppressed; when he attacks hacienderos (landlords), officers, friars and politicians who stole or appropriated the masses' hard earnings, he will take their spoils and either return it to its rural earners or share it with his downtrodden peasant following. | |

Magnificent Moustaches of Mexico: Of the Philippines, in this case; most of the elite Spanish men sport some degree of a moustache on them (at least one friar is a notable exception), but native Filipinos like Barbaro himself are likelier to be clean-shaven. | |

Taking the Veil | |
| Ang Barbaro (Comic Book) / int_4b9fa3a | comment |
Taking the Veil: Averted; Tarcila almost attempts this after Sabas argues with her and leaves in a huff, but she luckily knocks at the doors of the old convent whose sisters were her teachers, and the mother superior actually cautions her that maybe she's making a rash decision. At any rate, she forgets this when she sees Sabas has now been captured by the Guardia Civil. | |

Gorgeous Period Dress | |
| Ang Barbaro (Comic Book) / int_4fe1aa4c | comment |
Gorgeous Period Dress: Certainly for colonial elites this is the case, with police officers and the Governor-General in Bling of War, civilian officials in top hats and sharp suits, and Blanquita in fancy European dress. This won't necessarily apply to Sabas and his downtrodden and rebel following, since they're mostly wearing cheap, everyday clothing, but Sabas also has on his father's salakot (bowl-shaped hat). | |

Fat Bastard: The greedy friar who demands exorbitant tribute payments from people like Tarcila, threatening to withhold the official blessing required to bury their deceased loved ones. Town chief Kapitan Andres whom Barbaro knifes for not allowing his family a decent burial within town limits is a less obese version. | |

Police Brutality | |
| Ang Barbaro (Comic Book) / int_744e3311 | comment |
Police Brutality: The Guardia Civil, unsurprisingly, use this as standard operating procedure as the colonial paramilitary police force. Firstly on a local level under orders of Teniente Basco (Blanquita's dad), and later on a larger scale under the direction of Kapitan Magno and ultimately the Governor-General, they attempt to shoot Sabas every time they're in range of him and his gang, and find any excuse to beat him up or torture him when he's in their clutches. | |

| Ang Barbaro (Comic Book) / int_8543ec22 | comment |
Reality Subtext: It is no accident that Ang Barbaro was written, drawn, and serialised at the height of the Huk Rebellion in the early 1950s—a movement of peasant rebels taking up arms against the abuses of a greedy, oppressive, neocolonial oligarchy, backed with full force by the neoimperialist American government. | |

Sinister Minister: The fat friar who got rich off of charging exorbitant burial fees off poor townsfolk like Tarcila, and who denies proper Catholic burials otherwise. (He's even named Padre Damaso as a blatantly obvious Shout-Out to a certain nationally canonised novel with a similarly-named friar; the name is so metonymic of the character that it's not clear in this case if that really is this one's name or just shorthand for him being fat, greedy and cruel.) | |

Translation Convention | |
| Ang Barbaro (Comic Book) / int_e11b003d | comment |
Translation Convention: Even when full-blooded Spaniards are talking to one another, their dialogue is still rendered mostly in Tagalog for the benefit of Coching's mass audiencenote Spanish was still a school subject in the 1950s Philippines and was spoken frequently enough by the educated and elite, but the vast majority of the native population, being mostly working-class and with minimal education, would not have been particularly fluent in it—even in the Spanish era per se it never really penetrated the populace to the degree it did in most of Latin America, though a lot of Spanish loanwords (and at most, common short phrases or exclamations) still bleed through. | |
