19 Comic Cuts 28–News 28: Comics News From The Latest Issues of Dinakaran Vasantham, Puthiya Thalaimurai & The Sunday Indian

Dear ComiRades,

Welcome back to TCU. After couple of hectic months, TCU is started blogging again and let us hope that this stream continues for some time without a break in between. TCU’s last 3 posts were in Tamil Language and the response was tremendous and TCU promises to continue to enthral with Tamil Post’s in the future as well. Meanwhile many-a-Completed posts are waiting in the wings in TCU and

most probably they all will see the daylight in the coming month’s. Couple of New Comic Book series were launched and TCU got those books last week itself and they will be posted as soon as TCU goes through them.

Now, This was an Old news. However, it has to be recorded in the annals of the history and hence it finds its place in this particular post. Uncle Pai breathed his last on 24th Feb 2011 and this particular news was not covered widely in Tamil magazines. In fact there were only a handful of media which covered this news in English as well (In Tamil Nadu).

Uncle Pai needs no introduction for Tamil ComiRades. His works were published in Tamil Language right from the late 60’s till the early 2000. However, he hogged the lime light in 2 time periods and both of them were due to the sterling efforts of translation with Vandu Mama. Initially in the time period of 1975-1977, lots of Uncle Pai’s works were published in Kalki magazine and some of the notable success were Rekha, Ramu & Somu etc.

The 2nd Time period was considered as the golden period for the children's magazine as it coincided with the launch of Poonthalir magazine which had features of Tinkle in Tamil language and other wonderful stories from the Greatest ever story teller for Children of all ages in Tamil Language – Vandu Mama.

Yours Truly had plans to meet Uncle Pai to clarify some of the “Black-Holes” in the Tamil version’ of ACK and other stories from the Rang Rekha Syndicate. Along with Dr 7, A Short 3 day tour was planned and it remained as a plan only without ever materializing into a tour.  If at all there are regrets in TCU’s life, then this will be in that list. Thank You, Uncle Pai. Thanks for the wonderful childhood and a better growing up period.

Dinakaran News Paper Sunday Supplement Book-Vasantham: The coverage for the XIII Jumbo Special is continuing and this time, it is Nattamai of Vasantham Book. He vouches for the book and the interesting storyline. This is the 2nd time in the last 5 months that this sundae supplement is in the comics news. To add a little bit of glamour quotient, the rest of the page is also published un-edited.

Puthiya Thalaimurai Magazine: Recently TCU met Cartoonist Bala in a Film preview in Sathyam theatre and though we exchanged few words, a Long conversation is due. In this feature, He explains how he was drawn into the world of drawing (Pun un-intended). It is not a big surprise to know that it was Rani Comics’ Phantom stories (Re-Christened in Rani Comics as Mugamoodi Veerar Mayavi) which led him to become what he is now. Read this article completely. Very interesting.

Oonjal Monthly Magazine: We all know that the Monthly Novel Ullasa Oonjal is now available in the name of Oonjal & though the name is changed, the same author is penning the stories month after month. PKP, Or for those who came in late, Pattukkottai Prabhakar is the one who is writing the novels in this magazine. Last month’s issue featured a wonderful story on the onion price rise with Appusamy being the prime character. It was lovely to see the artwork of J again. For the readers, the complete story is presented here.

Old News – Cinema Express – Sanraa Media – The 99 Comics into Animation Show: Though this news was published in last year’s magazine, TCU had contacted the COO of Sanraa Media (Ex Colleagues) and he said that the project is costly one with each Half-an-Hour episode (of 22 Minutes) requires close to 14 lakhs. TCU is still waiting for the update on the news.

  4. டாக்டர் ஐயா!
    பதிவை படித்துவிட்டுதான் வருகிறேன். கார்ட்டுனிஸ்ட் பாலாவின் காமிக்ஸ் பின்புலம் பெருமைக்குரியது. நமது டாக்டர் ஐயாவிடம் கூட அற்புதமான சித்திரத்திறமை உண்டு என்று கேள்விப்பட்டேன். அவற்றை பதிவிட்டால் பாராட்டவோ பட்டமளிக்கவோ எனக்கு ஒரு வாய்ப்பு கிடைக்கும்!

    //அய்யம்பாலயத்தாருக்கு முன்னாடி பின்னூட்டம் போட்டாச்சு அது போதும் ;-)//

  5. 1. தாமதமான பிறந்தநாள் வாழ்த்துக்கள்.

    2. சிறப்பான செய்திகள். Good post.

    3. அப்புசாமி கதையை முழுமையாக வெளியிட்டமைக்கு நன்றிகள்.

    4. கார்டூனிஸ்ட் பாலாவின் தன்னம்பிக்கை கட்டுரை பிரம்மாதம்.

    5. தொடர்ந்து ஜம்போ ஸ்பெஷல் குறித்த செய்திகள் வருவது மகிழ்ச்சி.

  6. //Couple of New Comic Book series were launched and TCU got those books last week itself and they will be posted as soon as TCU goes through தேம//

    தமிழில் புதிய காமிக்ஸ் இதழ்கள் வருவது குறித்து மகிழ்ச்சி. அவற்றை விரைவாக வெளியிட்டால் நாங்களும் அவற்றை படித்து மகிழ்வோமல்லவா?

    இதற்க்கு முந்தைய வரியைப்போல (டாக்டர் ஐயா!பதிவை படித்துவிட்டுதான் வருகிறேன்.) இதில் கிண்டலோ, கேலியோ இல்லையே?

    உண்மையிலேயே அவர் வரைவாரா?

  9. விஸ்வா,
    புதிய காமிக்ஸ்கள் பதிவை எதிர்பார்கிறேன்

    இங்கே வந்துள்ள காமிக் கட்ஸ் அனைத்தும் தமிழ் ஊடகங்களிலே வைத்துள்ளதால் இந்த பதிவை தமிழிலே போட்டிருக்கலாமே

  10. நல்லதொரு தமிழ் காமிக்ஸ் தகவல் பதிவு.

    இன்னமும் ஜம்போ ஸ்பெஷல் பற்றிய பதிவுகள் வருவது மகிழ்ச்சி.

    அதே சமயம் அடுத்த இதழ்கள் இன்னமும் வராமல் இருப்பது கவலையை அளிக்கிறது.

  11. கார்டூனிஸ்ட் பாலா எங்கள் ஊரை சேர்ந்தவரா? சூப்பர். அவரின் படங்கள் நன்றாகவே இருக்கின்றன.

    அதே சமயம் அவரும் நம்மைப்போல காமிக்ஸ் ரசிகர் என்றதகவல் மனதிற்கு மகிழ்வூட்டுகிறது.

  12. ஆனந்த் பாய் அவர்களுக்கு மனமார்ந்த அஞ்சலி. அவரது ஆன்மா சாந்தி அடைவதாக.

    //time period of 1975-1977, lots of Uncle Pai’s works were published in Kalki magazine and some of the notable success were Rekha, Ramu & Somu etc.//

    இதைப்பற்றி சற்றே விரிவாக தனி பதிவாக இட இயலுமா? ஆர்வமாக இருக்கிறது.

  13. தினகரன் நாட்டாமை அவர்கள் நம்முடைய ஜம்போ ஸ்பெஷல் பற்றி கூறி இருப்பது கண்டு மகிழ்ச்சி.

    பத்திரிக்கை உலகில் இப்போது லயன் காமிக்ஸ் பற்றி அனைவருக்கும் ஓரளவுக்கு தெரிந்து இருக்கும் என்று நம்புகிறேன். தொடர்ந்து தகவல்களை அளிப்பதற்கு நன்றி.

  15. These comic cuts are fine. only issue i have with them is that, they are little bit out dated.

    For example, the oonjal book and the jeyaraj comics short story is awesome. however, the book is dated feb 2011 and you have posted about that in the fag end of april 2011. almost 3 months after the book is in the stands. it reduces the chances of most us buying these books to have it as a comics souvenir.

    Kindly let us know about these at the earliest time possible.

    P.S: I know that you are doing a staggering job with the Tamil comics and other related content. still, we want you to become the best. Thanks in advance.

  16. does cartoonist bala does any artwork for the comics? or he a political cartoonist, just like mathi?

    and his blog is also not updated, frequntly.

    If you are reading this (Mr bala), your works are awesome. as a die hard comics fan, i kindly request you to do a small comics story of your own. let it be 6 pages or 8 pages. Bbut do a comics story. we are eagerly awaiting for it.

  17. thanks for the side bar announcement about online purchase about jumbo special. couple of my (lazy friends) have ordered for the book.

    it would have been great if that was in the contents of the news post as it would have helped those who search for it online.
