UPDATE: The Phantom Comic Strips Blog (http://phantomcomicstrips.blogspot.com/) will no longer be updated....(Not an Apr 1 Joke) . Thanks to all who uploaded files and Mediafire for allowing bandwidth to download.

Presenting another Indrajal scan from Ajay Mishra, the story is nice and it takes the duo of captive sleuths to capture the Loan Shark. At a time, when there is a credit crunch for businesses in the current economy, such loan sharks may exist today. Beware of Unscrupulous Lending!!!! Many thanks to Ajay Mishra, once again for providing so many scans.

Quiz Time: Can Anyone Solve Question 2 on Page 30? Nice question indeed. Take a guess and let me know as well.

Check for fresh modified list in comment section.

*********************************************************************

This post is dedicated to our friend Srikanth - "The Countdown Man". He heartily wished to see missing IJC in double digit today.

Brother you announced, so let be as you wished. Here is 4 more English & 1 Hindi Indrajal Comics. Now we are, according to all calculations, in double figures. Cheers!

After this post only 98 English Indrajal Comics remain including all repeated issue. However, it is important to note that missing 98 English IJC contain followings:

1. Some IJC  are available were remixed from King/Charlton.
2. 1 IJC is available as Diamond Comics.
3. 40 IJC which are available in Hindi.

Details are available in comment section.

If any friend can check & inform me the number of IJC only, would be very thankful. :

1. all issues in which Rib Kirby's stories are available as second story. Friend who contributes Frew, need these . My another computer in which all IJC are saved is out of order.

2. all half posted & damaged issues.

Thanks & enjoy!

Second story of this 3 parts comics is "The Snare of Fortune" ( Rip Kirby).

HAPPY UGADHI TO ALL (NEW YEAR OF HINDU CALENDAR)

In Kannada I will say, Yelarigu Ugadhi habbada Subhashayagalu.

We eat Jaggery and Neem together on this auspicious day to summarize that the year be filled more with good times than the bad. I am going to a party tonight to celebrate the new year of Virodhi Samvatsara the name for this year. Let's all celebrate the new year with another indrajal comic.

Very nice Narda story from Indrajal Comics. Brought to us by the pioneer who started scanning Indrajal Comics Ajay Mishra. I am told his work is much appreciated and is a likely candidate for a VP position at Times of India....Thanks a lot again, Ajay. What would we folks who do not have access to Indrajals or Mandrake strips normally do without your contributions? I never read this story before. I am glad I started this project we are all very lucky to get and share Mandrake comic strips.
