""Pilipino Komiks", Caringal told Philstar.com, revolves around the story of Narda, an ordinary provincial lass, who was chosen to be her town’s Flores de Mayo "Reyna Elena". Wanting the honor for herself, Narda’s nemesis, the snake woman Valentina, banished Narda into the middle of the ocean, where she was rescued by the mermaid Dyesebel. Narda was later healed by Bangenge (from whom Narda gets the stone that gives her magical powers). After recovering, Narda returns as the super heroine Darna and faces Valentina. After beating Valentina (by setting fire to her lair), Darna transformed into Narda and finally, was paraded in town as the new "Reyna Elena"."
