Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Kalimán: Women want to be with him, men want to be him! That old adage fits this character. The superhero was huge in Mexico, the subject of comic books and a radio show that was as popular as the Shadow's was in the States. He's a very philosophical, peace loving man who uses his brains and heart as well as brawn in his capers.
