#Comic No.113-114:Mask of Deception & The Treasure Trail

Last week a memorable incident happened.A friend,Mr.Vijay (Sr.G.M.Marketing in a Hyderabad based Electronic Co.),who is a passionate comic lover,a great poet and a magnificent photographer,came to meet me specially.He managed to take a day leave and traveled around 300+ Km extra from his schedule in order to pay a visit to yours truly. In his words he was eager to meet a person who was possessing collection of those comics which he had adored and admired right from his childhood,he was eager to put his hands over the worn off pages of those comics which were used to be his heartthrob during childhood. He came and met us and was very fulfilled and satiated after having a look at those comics which he longed from a long time. That evening we talked over comics,poetry,movies,gazals and photography, humble and noble attitude of Vijay made that evening memorable. Its really wonderful to acknowledge that how comics formed a bond between two strangers due to which a person did not even hesitated to bore the pain of lot of traveling and squeezed out ample time from one's busy schedule.

Friends 'VenKit' contributions has reached to CW also after obliging other Indrajal bloggers.So presented here are 2 comics contributed by Venkit (very nice scans), i don't know the status of these comics on net,they might have been posted before or might not be.In any case all thanks to Venkit.

#Comic No.92:Laal Haveli Ka Rehasya

At last after a long time i got inspired enough to scan a comic myself,mainly because of the comic itself,"Laal Haveli Ka Rehasya",the very first Bahadur comic and a real classic one to read on.
Though i was having its English version scans but didn't read it yet till i recently got its Hindi version physically,just in order to preserve the moments associated with its Hindi version.
Today when i went through the comic all nostalgic moments associated with this comic,such as the impact of the scenes like Bahadur preparing a gun with bicycle pipes,scary closeup of Shamsher,red brick house of Bahadur,Vishal showing a mad woman to Bahadur during his brainwash session,bullets piercing down the villagers body...etc, reeled down my mind.
In late 70's and early 80's dacoity theme was very much vibrant and popular,a indigenous comic hero tackling down with dacoits was a instant hit mainly because of the theme and screenplay supported beautifully by a effective and descriptive art work capturing the essence of village fully.

Anniversary Post:Comic No.72-75

ANNIVERSARY POST

UPDATE:A new Amar Chitra Katha has been posted by ICC on the ACK blog.Enjoy.....

My Dear friends and esteemed visitors today is a special day for CW as exactly 1 year from today the first comic was posted on CW on 4^th Feb 2007. There is a long and interesting tale behind the formation of CW which I already had mentioned a couple of times but for the sake of new entrants of CW its being mentioned here once again along with some more interesting unknown facts.

I was/am a avid Indrajal fan right from my childhood but how did I came across the comics for the very first time is still a mystery for me also as in our family there was no tradition of reading books/comics apart from our school course .I remember very well that in those days we even can’t afford the subscription of newspaper which was the only news medium apart from radio hence there was no question of subscribing any type of magazine or comic.

But then how do I got addicted to books/comics if I think more deeply on it then I finds a reason behind my affinity which is since my maternal grandfather was a poet and a renowned literary person of his times then I might inherited the love for books from him.

Nearby my house there was a shop on which platform a old man known by the name of “Pundit Ji’ use to sell old books/comics etc. I remember myself often wandering around his shop and being fascinated by the colorful attractive covers of the comics. Sometimes he was kind enough to allow me to touch, turn and hold the comics in my hand. Soon I was strongly infatuated by these stapled bunches of colorful printed papers and the desire of owning them was getting stronger day by day but to realize this desire in reality for a kid of 6 having pocket money of mere 10 paisa/day was a too much ask.

Initially the demand for comics was fulfilled occasionally by parents but it was difficult also for them to satisfy my ever increasing hunger for comics.

So in order to quench the addiction the little kid got an idea and he use to skip the usual after school ‘chaat-pakodi’ feast in order to save his pocket money for comics. After 5 such days of ‘virtual fasting’ he was able to buy an Indrajal for 50 paisa, half the cover price rate of Rs.1/1.50 from Pundit Ji.

Year passed, my pocket money incremented and so do my collection which was now comprising of Indrajal,Parag,Lotpot,Diamond,Madhumuskan etc.

The story is too long hence friends take a small break here and read these comics until i returns:

The Masked Assassin

(The scans of this comic were not having the ad pages hence the ad pages are scanned by CW keeping in mind the likeness for ad pages of Col.Worobu)

Ok here i am back lets get back to the story;

During my summer vacations along with my similar liking friend I use to run a library in which we use to give comics of our collection on rent and from the earnings use to buy new comics which I myself read first before putting them in library.

A major event happened in 1983; India won the cricket world cup, the cricket culture in the country rose to new heights and I was also not remaining unaffected by the new rage. Cricket now became my new prime hobby and comics took a backseat.

In mid of 1985 we shifted to our new house and in this transition a major portion of my collection got lost, my negligence was also a major cause behind it as I was paying more attention toward cricket rather than comics.

From 85’ to early 90s’ I was busy in cricket though reading was also being continued at parallel but now the place of comics were taken by novels, film magazines and other teenage stuff ;o).

By the mid of 90s’ due to pressure of career shaping compulsions all my hobbies were forced to hibernate though occasional buying of Indrajals, whenever I find and able to buy, was continued.

Wheel of time rotated further, I completed my B.Tech than M.Tech before finally settling down to a satisfactory career. It was the later half of 2006 when during searching Indrajal on net TCP was discovered unfolding a huge comic mass in digital form. That was the triggering moment which woke the hibernated comic lover in me.

Since I always prefer to read comics/books on paper than on PC monitor hence the ‘comic quest’ begun. Fortunately I was able to collect a considerable volume of comics within few months with my ‘no stone left unturned’ approach. After maintaining a sizable collection of Indrajal Comics naturally I thought of contributing the scans to TCP but from comments thread I came to know that there was a waiting line (!!!) even for contributing comics……..reluctant of being in any queue and at least in a comic queue the idea of starting a new blog was cropped up considering the huge volume of crazy online Indrajal lovers.

Hence on 4^th Feb CW was born with a motive behind to share the comics with similar liking comic lovers who don’t have access to these timeless gems.

During this one year journey a whole new multi dimensional world of comic lovers was unfolded before me, interaction, sharing thoughts with these comic fans was really a divine, knowledgeable and unforgettable experience for me.

I am very much grateful to all comic lovers who visited CW and shared their precious thought with me. I am highly indebted especially to Mr.Ajay Misra, Mr.Vineeth Abraham and other persons behind the master project of scanning Indrajal Comics and making them available to us so that we were able to post them here for all of you.

I am also very much thankful to a person without whose support it was not possible for CW to live up to this stage and that person is my wife as it was only because of her patience and support that I was able to devote continuously the required length of time in scanning, compressing and then uploading the comics one after another for the whole year.

Last but not least I am heartily thankful and indebted to Comic Crazy from whom I got the very first anniversary gift i.e. the CW anniversary special banner; he is such a talent along with a good helping human.

At this occasion I wish to list the names of all those known persons who did left an impact on CW during its 1^st year journey.

#Comic No.63:Bahadur Aur Thagon Ka Giroh

Dear Doston...we all have witnessed a quite unpleasant scene on MTM recently involving our sadabahar fighter Sagnik once again in it...i wonder why only he gets involved in all these bouts!!!...anyway i won't be going into fault finding exercise as we all know very well including those who involved also that who was comparatively more judicious/correct in his approach.
Leaving behind all the negativities which we came across during the recent bout lets talks about some positive outcomes of it...the most positive outcome which i felt about it was the approach and attitude of our Chandan...he really was running helter-skelter to extinguish the engulfing fire by his small inadequate bucket of water.When mostly all other were busy in forming lobbies and attacking to quench their grievances against their 'enemies' he alone was in the battlefield preaching Lord Buddha's teachings.......this generosity of him generated the same kick and enthusiasm in me which i use to feel before posting the comics at CW in its very initial stage.
Hence as a tribute for his exemplary attitude here is a small gift for him ,the comic most sought by him "Bahadur Aur Thagon Ka Giroh",this one was scanned/compressed and uploaded on a urgent basis and has been posted at these late hours (12 am, midnight) inspite of my having 'A' shift tomarrow for which i have to leave my bed and warm quilt at 5 am in this pink cold weather.
After a long time i am posting all scanned pages also just 'coz of being driven by the same force by which i used to get drove initially...
