I remember that eventual meet too, and have kept my promise to write more about those gems which were published in Tamil Comics. There are more to go, though :).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for shedding some light on the failed attempts of Diamond with Agniputra, Jataayu attempts. I guess there is no need to explore much on them, as it seems to be a lost cause :).Isn't it ironic to hear that the same failed attempts of Diamond Comics to ape the success of Raj Comics, was also the reason why Tamil based Rani Comics closed shops?? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How could I miss your posts on Aabidji? In fact, that will serve as a medium for my posts, on the famous creations of Aabidji, which featured in Tamil Comics. Aabidji does certainly deserve a special mention at Comicology. Thanks to you and your write-up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way, Blueberry was published by &lt;B&gt;&lt;A HREF="http://www.comicology.in/search/label/Muthu%20Comics?max-results=3" REL="nofollow"&gt;Muthu Comics&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/B&gt;, another famous brand from the Sivakasi based Prakash Publishers. A Blueberry exclusive post, is due on Comicology soon, so I will try to document them over there.

I want to know which Tamil Publisher published Moebius&amp;#39;s Blueberry in Tamil?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Agniputra Abhay was one serious crap of a series, Diamond launched it to counter the more realistically drawn superheroes from other publishers (namely - Raj &amp;amp; Manoj Comics) but failed to woo the readers. Other titles were printed as supplimenting stories to fill up the pages of Tau Ji etc. I don&amp;#39;t know if they ever came up with Full Fledged comics of Jataayu etc. There was one more Jatayu which was published by Manoj Comics, but I think that character looked bit different than this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will wait for your posts on Aabid Surti, I think he was/and still is a true visionary one on the lines of Eisner I must say. Have met him couple of times. Hope you have checked out that post on my Chitrakathaa Blog :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nice post, got to learn a lot from it. waiting for your next post.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18147827/3780450710538984864/comments/default/1482841562630423921'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18147827/3780450710538984864/comments/default/1482841562630423921'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.comicology.in/2009/05/rani-comics-1984-2005-rise-and-fall.html?showComment=1242904454364#c1482841562630423921' title=''/><author><name>Toonfactory</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14178155242032988038</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='15901842721013824084'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.comicology.in/2009/05/rani-comics-1984-2005-rise-and-fall.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18147827.post-3780450710538984864' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18147827/posts/default/3780450710538984864' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18147827.post-819266224035172774</id><published>2009-05-20T11:14:35.340+05:30</published><updated>2009-05-20T11:14:35.340+05:30</updated><title type='text'>@ MaNdrAke dudE :Dear Sagnik, see how mean I becam...</title><content type='html'>&lt;B&gt;@ MaNdrAke dudE :&lt;/B&gt;Dear Sagnik, see how mean I became.

Thanks for pointing out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's more I will also try to make amends, by dedicating a post for ACK soon on Comicology.

I was hoping that they will sometime go back to their original roots, and even subscribed for 2 years when they were about to launch their 500th issue. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But it seems they had long drawn to bring curtains to Rani Comics.

So, here it is finally. and I am happy that it did serve informative enough for your comic research and passion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;True Shuja and Azad were real hits among Tamil Comic Fans. Aabid Surti really deserves a special mention for his marvellous creations over the years. I will blog more about him when we go down reviewing those titles here at Comicology, which were featured in Rani Comics. Bruce Lee, yeap it was one another one from the IJC stable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for that tip-off on Agniputra and Jadaayu. I vaguely remembered seeing them in old Diamond Comics issues, but don't have them in my collection to confirm the same. Could you help sending me some scans of the same, if you do possess them in your vast collection, buddy? I will be grateful if you do.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way, Welcome back to Comicology, my friend.

The purpose of featuring this post in pure English, was to strengthen that cause leaving aside the language barrier. Moreover, when it comes to medium of Comics, what value does the language have over ? :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At present I don't know what were published out of IJC. But rest assured, that we can dig in and analyse the list, once all the Mandrake/Phantom IJC's are available widely (all the more possible with the digital project going around with you IJC bloggers contributing to it). I will keep you informed on my findings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I agree. Indian publishers have traditionally shunned away from the concept of citing the original publications proper title and writer/artist credits. So it's always hell of a task for those comic fans like us, when we try to dig down the source.
