That’s awesome. I grew up reading them. As a kid, whenever I took a trip to India to visit my grandparents, I’d pester my dad to buy as many as he possibly could. I later found a giant trunk of ACK compilation volumes while digging around in my cousin’s attic. It’s like I stumbled on treasure. ACK is how I learned about my culture and mythology despite growing up as an American. I picked up the 14 volume special edition of the Mahabharata sometime some 16-17 years ago, and it’s been my favorite publication from them… Well, the Ganesha origin myth comic is pretty awesome too.

I know you love Amar Chitra Katha Comics. We just released our entire catalog of ETHER*MEDIA-Amar Chitra Katha comics in a single iPad app where you can collect them. I certainly hope you will find many of the classics in them. Appreciate any feedback from you as an ACK fan :)

The religion perpetuates the levels of have and have nots Working hard, being good, humility will never allow creativity in the hinduist society which could free people.
