Page 5: Saanpon Ki Devi (part 1) - Phantom (Indrajal Comics V25N27)
First, an announcement. I am going to post one very unusual kind of comic in the next three-four days. Based on a recent (but) historic event, or better be said based over the aftermath that followed the event, it is completely different from what we normally expect from a comic story. So much so that the hero and villain both find themselves on the same side, working for a common cause. It features one of today's most famous comic character world over.
Now, Here comes the next page from this interesting phantom tale. Well, the engaging/binding moments are still to arrive in the story.
One panel is slightly cropped. It's my book binders blunder. The idiot carelessly chopped away the portions of the page by not arranging properly the comics before binding them.. You may witness a similar (but far less troubling) repeat of this problem in some more pages. I could have repaired it in photo software, but ultimately decided to leave it for readers imagination and common sense. You may consider it as an exercise.
Happy Reading Friends.

TPH #053 Saanpon Ki Devi (part 1) - Phantom (Indrajal Comics V25N27)
In those days when Lee Falk's Original Sunday and Daily Strips were regularly publishing in different publications, some of the most exciting things to look for in the news paper and magazines were these fine pieces of artwork alongwith the intriguing suspense of the storyline. Illustrated by legends like Sy Barry and Fred Fredricks, each new day usually began with a look at that particular day's daily strip.The excitement of the rolling stroy was great.It gives me an idea. Usually I soon get bored with the routine excercise of posting comics in the similar manner again and agin, So as an attempt at finding some more pleasure myself, am starting a new experiment. Each day, I'll post one page of this excellent phantom story from indrajal comics, till all the pages are posted, and then will provide a download link.
The above said way of posting is only for this comic, Indrajal Comics V25N27 (and its sequel V25N28 of course) and other regular posts will continue to be posted simultaneously in the usual way. That means I'll be posting other comics alongwith this one at little intervals.

This is a fine story from 1988, a time when publishers were finding it increasingly difficult to sustain the popularity and demand of indrajal comics in india. It was a sad phase during which they made several attempts to keep the flame burning. Many different strategies were adopted to engage readers, iincludin various surveys conducted in the indrajal itself about the viewers choice of heroes, more indian characters or foreign etc. But unfortunately nothing could save the publishing house from shutting down and thus a sweet era of indrajal came to a cruel end.
| Thanks to all those friends, who gave their valuable feed-back on the topic of last post, i.e., regarding the scan size of the images. Chandan, Saif, Deb, O,I.C. (Frank), Mozz, Ajit, Dr. Ravi Gokhle, dara and anonymous. Most agree that a small file size is preferable over a huge one but in such a way that doesn't harm the quality of the scans. I am in total conformity with Frank's opinion when he says: "Two versions can be provided, a low quality (size ~ 5-10 mb) version and a high quality (saved at best possible quality as can be done) can be provided. remember never compromise quality for quantity for such rare gems which may never see a rescan..."May be this is the best solution. Meanwhile enjoy, or rather start enjoying the latest phantom issue on blog. |
