The name of Diamond Comics is very important in the world of Indian comics. This publication gave us many memorable heroes and stories, which readers still fondly remember. One of these special offerings is “Agniputra Abhay”. Its first link is “Agniputra Abhay and Thiano”, in which a brilliant combination of patriotism, supernatural powers and mystery can be seen. On one hand, this story fills with thrill, while on the other hand it also shows a glimpse of Indian culture and spirituality.
The Beginning of the Story: Mysterious Deaths and a Challenge
The story begins with Indraprastha, the capital of the country. There are some mysterious and scary deaths continuously happening here. The bodies of those who die are burnt to ashes from inside, but there is no trace outside. This matter becomes a headache for the police. Even experienced officers like Commissioner and Inspector Chauhan are not able to get to the bottom of this. The situation becomes so dangerous that a spy, who tries to solve this mystery, also gets burnt to death. This makes it clear that this is not an ordinary crime.
In such difficult times people remember ‘fighter abh’. Abhay is famous all over the country because of his past successes and bravery. At that time he is spending holidays in Khandala near Bombay, but the situation has become so serious that he is immediately called to Indraprastha. As Abhay reaches there, he is faced with danger. His detector clock at the airport tells him that a bomb is kept in his jeep. He also rescues the commissioner without wasting any time and the jeep flies away with a bang. This incident shows that Abhay is not only powerful but also sharp minded and intelligent.
Arrival of the Abhay and spiritual guidance
The matter is so complicated that Abhay feels it is difficult to solve it alone. So he goes to his guru Baba Sargamnath’s ashram, Bareilly. Baba tells him that this time he will need a special companion, who will be very powerful and mysterious. This way of getting a partner was not easy. Abhay will have to sit in front of the idol of Agnidev in the temple of Baba Tiberinath, chant a special mantra one lakh times and perform a yagya. This entire ritual adds religious and mythological colors to the story.
Origin of Agniputra: Demonstration of divine powers
When Abhay completes this yagya, a real miracle happens. The idol of Agnidev comes alive and appears in a huge form. This form is known to all as ‘fireputr’. Agniputra is a divine warrior full of the powers of fire and has now become Abhay’s companion.
Agniputra has many amazing powers. He can make his size small or big whenever he wants and can also become invisible. He can suffocate the enemies by drawing the surrounding vital air from his breath. His right hand melts any metal and his left hand turns iron into a magnet. Agniputra has knowledge of all types of waves and rays, through which it can gather information and also carry out energy attacks. The flame emanating from his eyes can consume the enemies. Apart from this, he also has divine weapons like Agni Chakra, Agni Shool and Agni Baan.
Accessories: Motorcycle and Fireworks
Not only this, Agniputra has also given Abhay a unique motorcycle, which runs without oil and can also talk. This bike gives information about enemies and also guides Abhay. In addition he has given small devices called ‘firekit’, which can run on any beam, gather information and even set fire if needed. These things give the story a technical and modern look. Agniputra also teaches Abhay a special martial art named ‘Dvandata’, which is said to be more deadly and effective than Karate.
Opponent: The Secret of Thiano
Now coming to the real villain of this comics, Thiano. This is the person due to whom a series of deaths are going on in the city. Thiano has the power to burn people from within. The police is also helpless in front of him. He uses a mysterious locket, which seems to be his source of power. The truth of his true identity and strength is the biggest mystery of the story and this is what keeps the readers engaged till the end. Thiano is so dangerous that both Abhay and Agniputra have to do all in their power to defeat him.
Analysis of art and writing style
Now if we talk about the artwork of these comics, then Anil Guddikar’s art is really fantastic. The pictures made by him are clean and powerful. The action scenes look especially impressive. Everything from the huge and divine form of Agniputra to the scary expressions of Thiano is beautifully carved. Yes, the style of coloring may seem simple in some places, but it was part of the comics of that period and does not diminish the impact of the story.
Vinay Sargam’s writing is also praiseworthy. He has taken the story forward at a fast pace and maintained the thrill. The dialogues are strong and show the depth of the characters. The best part is that he has mixed superhero action, guru-disciple tradition and mystery very well.
Conclusion
