BTT #18 - Two Comics from DSK Pujabarshiki

 Two comics from DSK pujabarshiki : অন্ধকারের হাতছাানি(by নারায়ণ দেবনাথ) from মন্দিরা(1977) and নরকের রাজা(by তুষার চ্যাটার্জি) from চন্দনা(1978).

 I am not a big fan of তুষার চ্যাটার্জি,specially the way he portrayed human figures! While anything looks good(or decent,at least) on the old, vintage pages of these DSK pujabarshikies,and so this comic,নরকের রাজা, but the way 're-production' of many old comics were done in the recent years(by some publishers,incld.DSK itself!!), I do believe the result will be quite inferior with this artists' out-puts,which are nothing compare to his contemporaries like নারায়ণ দেবনাথ or ময়ূখ চৌধুরী .
 Plus, in reality,TKC was a very ordinary artist,he picked some fantasy-based/adventure stories but the art ruined whole thing,sadly!
[The only TKC story which I believe worth re-reading or reproduction,is কালো বাঘের থাবা, originally ran in the late '70s SUKTARA covering 29 issues..]

 Meantime,enjoy these comics....

ভালো শেয়ার...তুষার চ্যাটার্জি যদিও নারায়ণ দেবনাথ/ময়ুখ চৌধুরীর চেয়ে পিছিয়ে ছিলেন শিল্প নৈপুণ্যে, তবু আজকালকার অনেক শিল্পীর চেয়ে ওনার কাজ ভালো ছিলো বলেই মনে হয় :)
