Ang Mundo ni Andong Agimat (or "The World of Andong Agimat") is a graphic novel written and illustrated by Filipino comic creator Arnold Arre. It was published by the author under his own Tala Comics Publishing in April 2006.
Plans to adapt the novel into a movie or tv series was made public on the October 8, 2007 edition of the Philippine Daily Inquirer by Unitel Production's Tony Gloria. Unitel Productions acquired the rights to the novel in June of 2007.[1]

[edit] Review
A logical and well-crafted evolution of Arre’s folklore-meets-modernity trip in The Mythology Class, this graphic novel is more action-packed, faster-paced and darker than Class. Told in Filipino and featuring crisp art, Agimat is an epic in a fishbowl, as Arre continues to tweak his unique take on the idea of metahumans and Filipino legends—with a good dab of superstition. Furthermore, Andong Agimat makes for a promising protagonist for future books and Agimat is confident proof that Arre has found a spectacular niche.[2]
