R.R. MARCELINO'S "CLEOPAKWAK" (1968)


"Cleopakwak" singing ala-Imelda (Marcos).

You may have probably heard of talking chickens (Ravelo’s
Texas, Alanguilan’s Elmer); talking horses (Ravelo’s Silveria: Ang Kabayong Daldalera, Pomposa: Ang Kabayong Tsismosa and Pablo Gomez’ Petrang Kabayo). How about a talking duck? Curious? Komiks writer R.R. Marcelino created Cleopakwak, a duck that talks and even sings and most importantly lays golden eggs. It was serialized in Pilipino Komiks in 1968 and adapted into the silver screen in 1969.
