I love comics!! Again!!

As kids we grew up reading comics. We used to rent them to ensure we could afford as many as possible.  The excitement of papa coming with the new lot every evening was one of the highlights of my childhood.

Soon as youth set in, we were introduced to magazines. Politics and current affairs were much more intriguing then the template following, hero worshiping, imagination laden, safe and unreal comics. It felt mighty and empowering to be introduced to the real world. The comics were retired unceremoniously.

After few years in the real world, the intrigue changed to disdain and excitement to dejection. The problems of real world are persistent and seriously embarrassing. The deduction that we are still marred by the primal issues of greed, control, entitlement, hunger for power, reign of fear and apathy for others, is heartbreaking.

As the CNN world page refuse to change for the better, Social media drips with drama of humans who drool like babies for attention and life continues to be an oxymoron; I have decided to retreat to my happy place again and embrace the comfort of imaginative illustrations.
