The hunt for "Lion Diwali Specials" from 1988 or "Muthu Comics Super Hit Series" is a serious hobby. Collectors look for specific artist signatures (e.g., "B.Sampath" or "Muthu Designer"). The yellowing of the pages, ironically, adds value, proving the book's age and authenticity.

The first Tamil comic book, "Manga" (not to be confused with the Japanese manga), was published in 1920 by the then-famous Tamil writer and artist, C. S. Ramanathan. However, it was not until the 1950s and 1960s that Tamil comic books gained widespread popularity. During this period, several comic book series were launched, including "Amar Chitra Katha" (Immortal Picture Stories), which was adapted from Indian mythology, folklore, and history. tamil comic books
