I was at the press conference of ABS CBN's new mini tv series of Komiks Presents : Flash Bomba, and believe me that I experienced a big goosebumps because all the origin and powers of Flash Bomba really adapted from the komiks done by Mars Ravelo and Nestor Maglapo. It was a great sight to see the Luis Manzano as Flash Bomba in costume and enjoyed listening to him while he answered all questions from the press and media. (Read more below)
Funny to hear that Flash Bomba is now being dubbed as the Superhero for all season, and because that Luis's mom is Vilma Santos as the Star for all season, Luis Manzano fit for the role and considered as part of a royal super hero family, because in the past movies, Vilma Santos as Darna and Luis's dad Edu Manzano play as Captain Barbell, all I can say is that they are Mars Ravelo babies. I just heard that the Flash Bomba series will be the last installment of the Komiks Present on TV, and heard in the future that they are now launching a original and 1st super hero team that we can label as the Justice League or Avengers of the Philippines, and they are called Sanlakas team. ( that's Lastikman, Kapitan Boom, Tiny Tony, Dragonna, Varga and Flash Bomba in one super team).
Komiks Presents : Flash Bomba will start on February 7, Luis Manzano is added in the roster of the Komiks Presents super heroes as the deformed superhero "Flash Bomba"

After starring in one of ABS-CBN’s top-rating shows, Dyosa, as Kulas, Luis Manzano will soon breathe life to an over the top superhero on Komiks Presents Mars Ravelo’s Flash Bomba soon to air on ABS-CBN.
Luis Manzano earned positive feedbacks in his portrayal of Kulas in Dyosa. As he topbills Komiks Presents, Luis is very much ready for the demands of his newest series.
“This is my first time to play lead role. Medyo pressured ng onti but it really helps when people around you are very supportive,” Luis shared.
Tagged as the “Superhero for all Seasons”, Flash Bomba stars Luis Manzano as the famed crime fighter who loves the spotlight, hence the Superhero for all seasons tag (plus the fact that Luis is the son of the Star for all Seasons Ms. Vilma Santos-Recto). Flash Bomba is the last of the Ravelo superheroes which also completes the much-anticipated Isang Lakas super team.
Under the direction of Dondon Santos, Luis breathes life to the character of Roldan Legazpi, a rich guy who thinks that he can do anything as long as he puts his mind into it. Despite his physical disability which he got when he encountered an accident while he was in a hunting trip, he managed to study martial arts and made time for body building to strengthen his upper body. And because of the physical training he underwent, he eventually learns to walk with his hands.
Other members of the cast include Roxanne Guinoo, Sid Lucero, Lito Pimentel, Nanette Inventor, Alan Paule, Empoy and Ms. Rio Locsin.
Flash Bomba has large hands and large feet, and you know what they say about men with large hands and feet...So play up your imagination because after the fiery Dragonna, comes Flash Bomba, soon on ABS-CBN.
