The Spiderman movie has a famous line, “great power comes with great responsibility.” This means that having significant power also brings a significant responsibility. However, in comics, there are heroes who don’t possess any superpowers but still strive to fulfill their responsibilities. Even if they get injured, to the extent of risking their lives, they emerge to protect people. Whether it’s Raj Comics’ super commando Dhruv, Doga, or Radha Comics’ Mahakal, DC Comics’ Batman, or Marvel Comics’ The Punisher and Daredevil. One such character is Sikandar, created by Manoj Comics. Sikandar, a regular boy from Jamnagar, whose father was a…
Kali Vidhwa is a significant character in the Doga Comics, with the purpose of seeking justice for women who have been tormented by injustice. She seeks revenge, whether it requires confronting the police or facing Doga himself. While both Kali Vidhwa and Doga share the common goal of ending violence, Doga fights for everyone, while Kali Vidhwa focuses specifically on women. Similar to the power that resonates only with women, Kali Vidhwa arrives like a storm in Doga’s life. Unlike Doga, she possesses no supernatural powers and relies solely on her physical strength. She uses a nylon rope to climb…
Cleanser of Criminals – Tutankhamun. There was a common belief that he was an invisible man. He claimed to be a thousand years old. He proclaimed himself to be Pharaoh Tutankhamun, emerging from the pyramids. We encountered these lines twice, both times when Tutankhamun appeared before us. The first time was in the comic ‘Nagraj aur Tajmahal ki Chori,’ where he, along with Thodanga, Miss Killer, Bem Bem Bigolo, and other dangerous criminals, orchestrated a plot. However, it later turned out to be the magician Shakura’s conspiracy. He killed Sir Robot and assumed his disguise but was thwarted by Nagraj,…

The story revolves around Mahakal, whose mother was Indian, and father was Chinese. His father, Loo-Chee, was a karate champion in Hong Kong. However, some people turned Loo-Chee into a puppet, engaging in illegal activities behind his back. The tale begins with the comic “Mahakal and the Worshipers of Death,” where the daughter of the Indian intelligence agency’s Home Minister, belonging to a group in Hong Kong that calls themselves the White Bats, is imprisoned. Everyone wants to rescue her and bring her to India, but without damaging the relations between the two countries. That’s when they turn to retired…
Nastredamus, but before I proceed, let me clarify that we’re not talking about the Nostradamus who passed away centuries ago and wrote the prophetic book ‘Les Prophéties.’ We’re referring to a different Nastredamus who turned his gems into weapons, creating superheroes like Dhruv and compelling them to kneel. Nastredamus made his debut in the assassin comics, attempting to loot a van with his partners Shukra and Shani. It is here that he faces Dhruv for the first time. The comics do not delve into Nastredamus’ personal life, only revealing that his father was also an astrologer. Believing in the deep…
When Nagraj and Shankar Shanshah comics were introduced, and Vishapriya compelled Nagraj to expel all the serpents from his body by playing the tune on the flute, every reader was curious about whether Nagraj would face such formidable opponents, and indeed, one day, Nagraj encountered his second biggest enemy, Sapera. Sapera, who excelled in catching snakes and using his tune to make them dance, was actually a musician named Ravi Menon. Ravi Menon had increased the growth rate of crops through his music and had also enhanced his resistance to pests. This caused fear in the hearts of businessmen like…
The story revolves around the time when India gained independence, and princely states were abolished. Vikrant’s father was a resident of the Rajgarh principality during those days. Despite being simple and calm, Vikrant’s father, Vidyadhar, was well-versed in tantra-mantra and yogic practices. He had initially aspired to become a sannyasi (ascetic) but was compelled to marry and lead a household life due to familial and societal pressures. However, even after 15 years of marriage, when Vidyadhar and his wife remained childless, he decided to renounce his family and left for the jungles of Rajgarh. There, he dedicated his life to…
Garlagant, much like the benevolent serpents and Nagraj, is the deity of sin and evil-spreading wishful serpents in the world. Garlagant, the demon king, is considered divine for his wickedness and animosity towards Kaaljayi. In the Vishakanya Comics, Garlagant introduces a powerful entity named Vishakanya, whose purpose is to eliminate Nagraj. It is revealed that Garlagant harbors enmity towards Kaaljayi, and Nagraj, born with the blessings of Dev Kaaljayi, becomes his ultimate adversary. Garlagant’s character is intricately crafted in any comic, portraying why he sees Kaaljayi as his enemy. This dichotomy is illustrated in Vishahin Nagraj, with Dev Kaaljayi aligned…
Taking inspiration and copying have a thin line between them. A little mistake can make all the hard work go to waste, whether it’s a film, a product, or a character in a comic. However, many characters have been created by taking inspiration, enhancing or diminishing their strength, from their name to their abilities. This has become quite common in the world of comics, and the debate between DC Comics and Marvel Comics on characters imitating each other has always been ongoing. This issue has been persistently raised between them, with characters copying each other, and this trend has been…
