Manoj Comics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Ram-Rahim)

An example of Manoj comics from the 1980's

Manoj Comics was one of the leading comic book houses in India along with its competitors like Raj Comics and Diamond Comics.[1] Other than the regular characters, the prime strength of Manoj Comics was the stories based on Kings-Queens, Prince-Princess, Demons, Dragons and Ghosts. Almost half of the Manoj Comics published comics fall in these categories. They also published illustrations for some of the world-famous stories like Gulliver's Travels.

Due to changing tastes Manoj Comics were finally closed down. Manoj Comics was the last major Indian comic book company which got shut down just before the end of the dark age of the Indian comic industry.[2]

In 2021, Comics India announced that they would start reprinting Manoj Comics starting with character Hawaldar Bahadur.[citation needed]
