THIS COMIC IS NOW AVAILABLE IN PRINT

Simple story: Bhutan is on the verge of collapse. A plan to con India ends up on its head when they end up becoming the world’s smallest superpower – Small thunder!

Small Thunder is a comic that I’ve been working on for last 5 years. I’ve written it, re-written it, went to Bhutan for research, Learnt Thangka painting basics, emailed this to every possible publisher and literary agent there is. Wrote to Universities, funds, research programs – everything. Nothing has happened so far. I too got busy with other things and left it at chapter 4. This is a 20 chapter story.

 

Just to make sure that I would not offend the Bhutanese with wrong depiction, I wrote to Kunga Tenzin Dorji (overall rockstar and logical person) – who I saw performing at the SAARC musical festival in Delhi and pinged at random. He was extremely generous and kept responding till I was working on this. I have drawn and redrawn so many versions of this, I am not sure if this one contains all the edits suggested by him. Thank you Kunga.
