Description:
This book explores graphic narratives and comics in India and demonstrates how these forms serve as sites on which myths are enacted and recast. It uses examples to show how they re-imagine two of India's most famous epics -- the Ramayana and the Mahabharata -- as science fiction and superhero tales.
