#Belated Wishes and Comic No.66:Outlaws At Sea

First of all a belated but warm wishes for the New Year 2008 to all of you.May this new year be able to make this world a better place to live in.
Talking about the previous year it was of pioneer importance for me as that year brought some major achievements in the field of my hobby of comic reading/collecting. Before the discovery of TCP my comic reading hobby specially of Indrajal was subdued and rusted a bit in the due course of time due to my bread n butter preferences.All that i was having in the name of Indrajal Comics were mere 50-75 odd copies which i managed to collect from my childhood to school days within my stiff financial condition. I was completely unaware of the details such as the total no. of Indrajal comics published by Times of India and was satisfied with my meager collection having impression in mind that around this much only would have been published by Times Of India,i was also unaware about the other facts such as history of Phantom comics and terms such as Sundays/Dailies,Moore/MCcoy/Barry,Frew...
At the advent of parting of 2006 while searching Indrajal comics at net TCP was discovered and a new dimension of comic world specially of Indrajal was unfolded before me and i was amazed and thrilled to find the real and so bright world of Indrajal comics,this was the moment which shook violently the drowsy comic lover in me and it rose in full fury and hunger.Though a collateral mass of comics was available at TCP but in digital form which was insufficient to quench my comic thirst as i always prefer to read comic on paper rather than on PC monitor due to which though i downloaded the comics from TCP but never read them except a few.
After that the search at old book shops began at war level and luckily within few months i was able to collect a considerable amount of comics which currently comprises of more than 600 Indrajal comics out of total published 803 along with quite a considerable no. of multiple copies.
For this first of all i will like to thank those old book vendors from whom i got these priceless gems,after that thanks to friends such as Vikram who helped me in building up the collection through exchanging comics also thanks to a ebay seller through whom i manage to procure hundreds of Indrajals...and the hunt is still on.
There is also a interesting story behind how the 'Comic World' came into existence,what happened that after maintaining a considerable amount of collection i thought naturally to contribute to TCP rather than starting a new blog but when through comments section at TCP i came to know that there was a 'waiting queue' (!!!) for contributing comics.............my enthusiasm died out as i don't wanted to be a part of queue for contributing comic also. Hence there the idea of starting a new blog crept in and after many experiments and observations the blog eventually sailed up and is still moving through.
This blog helped in getting introduced to a new world of comic lovers who share same liking over the comics,who sport the same thought over comics,who debate and sometimes fights also to support their ideas about the theoretically 'imaginary' comical dimensions.
Inspired by TPH,of whose innovative ideas i am a fan,i am putting some of the sketches of mine drawn a long long way back (approximately 15-20 years) when i used to love pencil/pen sketching.

































Also here are some of the scan of cover pages of comics which i recently been able to procure
