#Comic No.93:Madhumuskan No.113

(Image courtesy:Comic Crazee)

First of all a very happy independence day to all my fellow Indians.Sixty one year back we won our freedom from British rule but still we are not in full peace and freedom,we are waiting for the day to come when we will be free from unemployment,corruption,inflation,terrorism,communalism and dirty politics ..etc...etc. But how this can be achieved...does the solution lies in 'Rang De Basanti' theory.!!!

Anyway presented here is a vintage issue of Madhumuskan,a real classic one containing many
exiting characters such as Chustram-Sustram,Popat-Chaupat and Vanputra Shalu.

lets share a bit of sport amidst comics......
We all know where Hockey stands today(imagine the sport supposedly our national sport,,,come on)...
Cricket was supposed to be invented by the British and mastered by India,,,,well,well....
pls gimme a break.

What is happening is utter complacency,inconsistency and foul body language to match it.
We got pacers who dont bowl pace,spinners who cant spin and fielders,well...everyone knows that.
Do the basics right and the results will be taken care of....this is precisely waht separates Aussies from other countries.
My dear friends,remember one thing.....Each team has equal potential/ability....but a matter of time who uses it.

"We are rewarded not for having brains but for using them".....
Old Jungle Saying(did anyone use it?,,,,i dont know)

Hats off to Abhinav...he has made us proud.

kuldeepjain said...

Hi Indscribe..

50 Fauladi singh comics.. I am ready to commit crime of stealing in your house..

please let me know your address..

else

i will earnestly request you to pl scan and send to all of us..

Friends about Madhu Muskan..

it has so many phases of ups and down..

1. in the beginning color pages and regular character.

2. Black and white pages..

3 and if i remember correctly from issue 332 again color ..

they also started giving foreign comic strip in madhu muskan and then the time came when the story line started fading.. and i can confirm by all means that was the time when TV was starting in India..

i can recall all the old stories , humour from the various character.

any one remembers " yum yum, chapar chapar, Gurrrrr,

dadiji famous dialaogue " aisa khurapati puttar aur kadak dady hey bhagwan maine kya gunah kiya tha "

artist Jagdish of Poput chaupat fame also introduced similar type of character e.g. Manku Jhanku ( manoj comic) mashinilal afimilala( manoj againand they were simply superb.

in the above characters i recall i read only two comic of each in manoj..

i can write more and more but stop here with last line..

my appreciation and respect to you all who has the same old comic spirit which is difficult to get today.. hats off to you friends..

Comic World said...

Kuldeep: Nice nostalgic description of Madhumuskan..i would also like to add something.
In very early phase Madhumuskan use to have all pages in two colors only,later first and last two pages were colored and finally whole comic was in color.
Jagdish and Harish M.Sudan were the main protagonist of the comic very well supported by writer H.I.Pasha and illustrator Hussain Zamin.
H.I.Pasha's stories were quite enjoyable,Jasoos Bablu was his brainchild along with Filmy Reporter Kalamdas
On a later stage features like "Kathasagar" were also introduced but they didn't proved successful.
Editors also toyed with the idea of providing a combination of various foreign strips but that was also not proved to be a great success.At a time strips like "Spiderman","Superman","Archies","Donald Duck" etc used to appear in Madhumuskan.
Parting of Jagdish from Madhumuskan was the major blow towards its decline as he was the creator of the majority of popular characters of the comic i.e."Paupat-Chaupat,Sustram-Chustram,
Vanputra Shalu,Bharat Kumar,Bhootnath Aur Jadui Tulika
etc.
Harish Sudan,who was also the editor of magazine tried to resurrect it but in vain and during the final stages Madhumuskan was only reprinting the previous Jagdish's features.

Abdul Qureshi said...
