Satur
Likha ni Francisco V. Coching
Hindi lahat ng trahedya ay nagsisimula sa dahas—minsan, sa isang matamis na ngiti. Ang Satur ay isang makapangyarihang kuwentong likha ni Francisco V. Coching na unang inilathala sa Pilipino Komiks noong 1950. Mula sa bayan ng Talisay, itinatampok ng kuwento si Cristina, hinubog mula sa imahe ng kagandahan.
Batid ni Cristina ang kapangyarihang taglay ng kaniyang kagandahan, sanay sa pagtanggap ng paghanga at mga regalo. Ngunit darating si Satur—isang dayuhang may lihim na misyon, at magsisimula ang isang mapanganib na laro ng pagnanasa at kapangyarihan.
Sa komiks na ito, isinalarawan ni Coching ang panahon ng kolonyalismong Espanyol, ngunit higit pa riyan, tinalakay niya ang pulitika ng pag-ibig, dangal, at kontrol. Hindi lamang ito kuwento ng pag-ibig. Isa itong matalim na pagtingin sa ugnayang tao sa tao—at sa kung paano maaaring maging bitag ang kagandahan.
Unang nailathala ang akdang ito sa Pilipino Komiks noong taong 1950, at ginawa ring pelikula ng LVN Pictures sa ilalim ng tanyag na direktor na si Lamberto Avellana. Si Manuel Conde ang gumanap bilang Satur, si Delia Razon ang pumapel bilang Cristina, at si Jaime dela Rosa ang gumanap na Sendong.
PAGSUSURI:
“Hari ng Pinoy komiks at aking idolo. Iyan ang taguri at turing ko kay Francisco V. Coching dahil sa kaniyang husay bilang manunulat at ilustrador. Sa pagsipat at pagtuon sa estilo ng kaniyang mga likha, napakarami kong natutuhan tungkol sa pagguhit para sa komiks. Sa Satur, makikita ang malinaw na halimbawa ng kaniyang talento: masalimuot na kuwento, matitinding tagpo, at mga tauhang tatatak sa iyong alaala.”
