#Comic World Draws Attention & Recent Hunt

Friends,first of all a good news for all of you.Your favorite blog Comic World has been mentioned today in Hindi edition of "Hindustan Times".Congrats and thanks to all supporters,friends,readers and visitor as without your support it was not possible for Comic World to attain this status.
The post over Novels,Sushma & Ved Prakash Sharma was discussed in detail in that article.Readers can read that article through this link
"Article in 'Hindustan' on Comic World"
Here is a screen shot of that article for easy reference.





















Friends,i was out of station last weekend to attend wedding reception of one of my colleague,taking advantage of this opportunity i carried on with my usual comic hunt and found some good old comics.
Many of times i am asked by many of you that how and where to find old comics/novels.Well,
the best way to find these is to search at the old book shops as i use to do.Whenever i find chance to visit any city,i try to find addresses of old book shops of that city and try hard to visit those shops,same as i did this time.

Whereas my other friends,who were with me during this trip,were busy in utilizing their free time in marketing and shopping & i was searching religiously for comics in the fiercely scorching heat.Sweat was dripping like a open tap from my body but i was working hard to cover as many shops as possible within the available time frame.
Here are the scans of some of those comics/novels which i found during this hunt.This time i was searching for novels of Surendra Mohan Pathak,found none except this old one.I still haven't read it,can anyone throw some light over this particular novel!!




























Found a bunch of 1975's Chandamama sewed together,seems interesting read,will read and let you know.










































Do anyone remember this vintage ad of Poppins....




























Got a couple of Fauladi Singh,but in English......















































The highlight of recent comic hunt was to get hold of very initial and rare issues of Amar Chitra Katha in Bangla.ACK published first 10 issues based on foreign folk tales such as "Cindrella,Sleeping Beauty,Alladin" etc.
These initial 10 issues are never mentioned by ACK in their official publishing chronology as these were non-indigenous stories issues whereas ACK boast and thrives on being a publisher and promoter of 'Indian culture'.
Here are some of those issues.


















































Also got these novels with eye catching covers.





























Normally i don't use to take Diamond comics of other than selected heroes but this time took few of these...



























Found this rare and early Manoj Chitra Katha,see the ad of 'Bahu Mange Insaaf' over its back cover page.



























Anupam,this last one is for your project,found a comic from this publication for the very first time.See if it can help you,for details pls drop a mail.

#Comic No.128 & 129 and 1st Indian Super Hero

Almost all the Indrajal comics are posted on net except very few.This
No.209,'RamCharitManas' was among one of them.
Indrajal comics also published some issues based on indigenous stories same as Amar Chitra Katha. This present comic is based on Tulsidas Ramayan and shlokas from the original text are taken and translated in English along with,making this comic in prose form.
Friends same as this comic one movie of 'Rajkumar' was in prose form,means,that the total dialogues of that movie were in prose.Can anyone tell which was that movie.

When a friend Alok,asked me for his documentary about the first Indian comic super Hero then the name of 'Bharat Kumar' of Madhumuskan came invariably in my mind.
It was a misconception in some persons mind that Fauladi Singh was the 1st Indian Super Hero,but since 1st comic of FS was published in 1979 whereas this current Bharat Kumar feature is from a 1977 issue of MM,which leaves no doubt that 'Bharat Kumar' was the 1st Indian Super Hero.





























Have a look at very early "Daddy Ji" feature by 'Harish M.Sudan' from the same issue. Note that only one page was allotted to Harish Sudan at that time.


























Another super hit Fauladi Singh comic is presented here for all of you,and its none other than "Fauladi Singh Aur Karkola Ka Chakravyuh" contributed by Navdeep for which all thanks and credit to him only.
