#599 finally revealed Tobi's identity. Even if you missed it, Kishimoto is such a genius that just by reading the title of the chapter (Obito Uchiha), you'll get to know that >.<

Nish’s Notepad: Harry Potty and the Deathly Boring

Before starting the review, I’m a big fan of Harry Potter. I’ve grown up with it. So choosing between this and the other parodies was quite easy. Published by Papercutz Graphic Novels, Harry Potty is the first of the four available parodies, in a series called as Papercutz Slices.

Nish's Notepad: Odayan #01

Friends, romans, and countrymen, after 5 months of this "academic exile"; Nish returns. :D
So today I'm reviewing Level 10's first title to go digital: "Odayan". I was interested in it from the day I saw its first teaser as it carries with it, the names of some great people in the comic industry.

Nish's Notepad: Ravana- Roar of the Demon King

Another flaming title from Campfire, after Nelson Mandela comes to my notepad this week. I know you've read the title, so no marks for guessing the name. So, this is a mythological title, in a narrative style, from none other than RAVANA: THE DEMON KING.

Nish's Notepad: Do the DCU! Part I

Hola People! Missed me? Ah, I know you did. So, I'm Back! (drumrolls). This week, I'm not reviewing a particular comic book, but will be giving my opinion on the upcoming DCnU titles. This week I'm going to take on my top 10 titles about Squads. They're arranged alphabetically, not rank-wise! :) And yes, the images are in super high quality. So, feel free to click on 'em to view the covers in HQP (Highest Quality Possible) :D!

Nish's Notepad: The Itch You Can't Scratch

Post India's first Comic Con, I read an awesome book, which admittedly I should have reviewed somewhere in February, but my apologies for being late people!



After 20th Feb, 2011 or Day 2 of the Comic Con, as some like to call it; the first graphic novel I read was "The Itch You Can't Scratch".

Nish's Notepad: Werehouse #1

After 5 days of fever, I finally managed to attend the Delhi launch of Werehouse Vol.1, organized by the Comic Addicts team itself! an hour late though. I missed the fun they had, but grabbed my copy, which is Holy Cow's debut title. So, here I go!
Werehouse has 3 were stories at the price of 1, so you get 3 reviews for the price of one too.. :D

Nish's Notepad: Batman #500

Happy Bat-Week Mates! Since this whole week is for Batman, so I though what would be better than going back in the past? So I digged up my shelf for something like that and found a perfect thing to write a review on: Batman Issue #500..

Script: Doug Moench
Pencils: Jim Aparo, Mike Manley
Inks: Terry Austin, Mike Manley
Colours: Adrienne Roy
Letters: Ken Bruzenak
Editor: Dennis O'Neil

Before I start with my actual review, let me tell you about the Knightfall series of Batman, to which #500 belongs. Before the Knightfall series, i.e. in Issue #491, Bane stages a giant break out of Arkham Asylum, due to which Batman's fiercest foes like Joker, the Scarecrow, Killer Croc, Poison Ivy, Two face etc. start a rampage within the Asylum.

Nish's Notepad: UBIMA

Hello there! Last week I reviewed Sufi Comics, a religious comic with illustrated teachings from the Holy Qur'an. And as promised, this week, it's completely DESI!
BTW Thank you people for 52 likes on the previous post, and continue the same :P


This week on my Notepad is Uud Bilaw Manus, or UBIMA in short.

Art: Abhijeet Kini
Script: Adhiraj Singh

From the i-don't-know-what-he-ate mind of Adhiraj Singh, badly drawn comics returns! but with a slight difference this time, thanks to Abhijeet Kini that it's not badly drawn now :)

Nish's Notepad: Sufi Comics

Hello There!
I know most of you know me as The Gotham Guy: Nishkarsh Chugh but what's better than a combined blog where you have all the stuff at only one place. This is my first official post, I've written twice here but that wasn't OFFICIAL.
Enough talks, I'll be writing every Tuesday here and for some weeks, I'll be reviewing comics and graphic novel's of different genres, different companies and different ages. Special thanks to Mayank, without whose support we wouldn't be able to come on a single platform and write.


So today, I'm going to review 40 Sufi Comics, short comic strips illustrating eternal truths in the teachings of Islam.

"One's own religion is after all a matter between oneself and one's Maker and no one else's.

-Mahatma Gandhi

I'm a Hindu. I spent my early childhood days reading Amar Chitra Katha (because it was an easy way to understand the vast Hindu Religion) . I didn't know about the the teachings of Holy Qur'an and Islamic Religion. Just some weeksa back, I ordered 40 Sufi Comics and some days back, it got delivered. The cover page said it all.. "Heaven is just two steps away" (read the whole review to get the answer)..
