      We have thus taken a quick look at the tradition of sequential pictorial narratives in India, followed by a brief overview of the current state of comics, graphic novels and their publication in India. While Indian comics at present do tend to follow a Western format, at least as far as publishing goes, there are experiments in narratives being made here as well, and artists and writers are also exploring other forms like manga, or trying to invent their own styles (like in the case of Sita’s Ramayan or Bhimayana). All in all, this is a rich period in the history of comics and graphic novels in India, and it bodes well for the future of the genre.
