When ACK came into existence in 1967, they were an instant game changer. Maybe it was because of the show on DD2, or perhaps it was because The Phantom was almost always bundled with Amar Chitra Katha comics in the local lending library. Growing up, IвЂ™d always confused The Phantom for an Indian comic. For the very first time, Indians could buy an entire comic book, instead of having to wait for newspapers and magazines to finish a story. They were an instant hit with Indian readers, and as the medium grew in popularity, there was soon a need for stories to be told using the comic medium.Д¬ut to a few years later, and enter Indrajal Comics вЂ“ a Times of India group imprint founded in the mid-вЂ™60s вЂ“ which syndicated, translated, and published western comics like The Phantom, Mandrake and Flash Gordon. India started her comic journey by translating and serialising international comics and publishing them in dailies or magazines. But how on earth was this possible?ДЇor that, I need to take you back to the late вЂ™50s, when comics first started appearing in newspapers and magazines. Coquettish southerners spoke Tamil, James Bond uttered punch dialogues, cowboys were given the most Indian names. These slim, cheaply produced comics were about pirates, cowboys, detectives, superheroes and mad scientists, and while growing up, they were everywhere.

But the ones that really grabbed my attention were the pulpy Lion and Muthu Comics IвЂ™d вЂњborrowedвЂќ from barbers and tea shops вЂ“ itвЂ™s not stealing when youвЂ™re six and donвЂ™t know better. There were newspaper clippings of Peanuts from the young world issues of Amar Chitra KathaвЂ™s The Mahabharata a number of yellowing Tinkles and a whole lot of puffy Archies. I spent a large part of my weekend battling cockroaches and digging through boxes of comics IвЂ™d collected since I was six. But this brings us to an important question: whoвЂ™s going to publish all these books? And where do we go from here as an industry?Д«ut first, letвЂ™s back up to track the story so far: A brief history of comics in India
