বাংলা কমিক্‌স ও অদ্ভুতরস / Bangla Comics o Adbhutras

Abstract

Comics or cartoons are one of the branches of literature. Although they are a modern-day entertainment medium for Bengali literature readers, comics originated in western literature long ago. The popularity of comics remains unwavering among readers of all ages, from children to teenagers. In most cases, surprise and wonder become the main theme in the story, which is a combination of story and images. Comics artists also write satirical and humorous writings against various social constructs. Comics, a combination of images and stories, are sometimes used as a symbol of serious and sometimes light laughter and wonder. Illustrators like Sukhlata Rao, Sukumar Roy, Mayukh Chowdhury, and Narayan Debnath have made remarkable contributions to the world of Bengali comics creation. The article in question attempts to discuss the strange, humorous comics written in Bengali with a sense of wonder.
