What to expect

Two kinds of things :

• Actual comics, written and drawn by me and other comics creators from India. [ get in touch if you'd like to contribute]
• General stuff about comics - during the times when I'm too lazy or incompetent to actually create something. Which is most times, actually.
  

The Wizard of Words

Long-time reader Gowri has started off his very own word-coinage blog, a-la Wordmint. It's called The Wizard of Words, and has some interesting additions to the language. A sampling :

Chuckravyuha

Meaning: A plot to bring disrepute to a cricketer by claiming his use of suspicious bowling (or 'chucking')techniques.
Pronounciation: Chuck-raa-view-ha
Usage: I am just surprised how only Asian cricketers are targeted in these chuckravyuhas.

Sorry for the break.

Sorry - this damn blogging tool isn't working when I try to post anything more than a few lines. Hope to have it fixed in a few hours. To follow : Goodbye Bob. And why I should be burned in effigy.

Thanks for reading this blog. Back in a jiff.

Desi Brangelinas

Amit Varma's worst fears are coming true.

Surya and Jyothika - Soothika (non-Tamil speakers, please excuse)

Asin and Vikram - Ashram

Vijay and Trisha - Visha

Anil and Tina Ambani - Antenna

Dhoni and Katrina Kaif - Dhoka

Cyrus Broacha and Celina Jaitley - Cycley

I.M.Vijayan and U.R.Ananthamurthy -V.R.Gay

Sushmita Sen and Cybill Sheppard - Sensible

Okay, I'm all out. Any more suggestions?

Late Additions :

Scarlet Johansson and Batman - Scatman

J-LO and TR - LOTR

Madhu Sapre and Dimple Kapadia - Sapadriya? (Another for the Tam-only crowd)

V.R.V.Singh and Ronnie Screwvala - V.R.Screwing
