PDF comic book corner !

[twoplustwoisfour]

you were pretty lucky to go I hardly ever heard of any such events in the uk let alone got to attend one.Did you buy any for your collection ?

Yup, added a lot of Diamond and DC Comics to my collection (surprise, surprise, they were pretty cheap). Got some souvenirs (T-shirts, mugs etc) as well. Unfortunately, as I mentioned before, a lot of publishers (like Raj comics) didn't participate.

There were book launches, competitions, book readings etc as well. Oh, and I attended a workshop on 'How to draw your own comics'.

Mostly Batman ones and Superman ones. My favorite of them was 'Clay', a real badass character. (I got around 15 - 20, don't remember all). But it's not that fun to actually read the comics when you get older, because I think your imagination is not that vivid. I've given them to my nephew to read right now, he seems to be enjoying them.

I still have plenty of old comics' pdf collection.. As I encourage my nephew and niece for reading them rather than focusing in Pogo/Cartoon Network.

My favorites were:-

1) I got introduced by comics world by Indrajal comics (Mandrake, Phantom etc) of my cousins
2) Then Manoj Comics- Ram Rahim Series, Hawaldar Bahadur series
3) Diamond comics - Chacha Chaudhary, Billoo, Pinky etc Didnt like them but my sis loves to read them
4) Raj Comics - Then came Raj comics with Nagraj, Super Commando Dhruv, Parmanu and most loved "Thrill-Horror-suspense" series.
5) Amar Chitrakatha -- All old king-queen comics
6) Not exactly comics but magazines like Suman Saurabh, Chandamama, Champak, Nandan, Nanhe Samrat etc I sometimes buy them as well

Superman and Lois Lane to Break Up in the DC Relaunch?

Superman and his wife of fifteen years, Lois Lane, are breaking up in September as part of DC Comics' superhero relaunch. At least, that seems to be the case if you read into statements made by Dan DiDio in a recent interview. While discussing of the Man of Tomorrow's narrative continuity, the DC Comics Co-Publisher confirmed Superman's matrimony with Lois is being "reexamined" in advance of DC's imminent revamping.

Lois Lane and Clark Kent were officially married in 1996's Superman: The Wedding Album. Speaking to NBC New York's Popcornbiz, DiDio hinted in his typically unsubtle way that the events of that issue will be undone as DC Comics embarks upon its bold mission to jettison continuity and make itself ostensibly more welcoming to new readers.

"Let's just say [Clark and Lois' marriage] is being reexamined," says Didio, who oversees the 77-year-old comic book company, which relaunches all of its titles with 52 new #1 issues in September, "because it's something that I think is something that is so valuable to the character's story that you really want to explore all facets of it. Not just as it exists currently."
