Kalidasa had some awesome fetishes.



Context:




Payoff:




From Amar Chitra Katha #103/569, "Malavika," an adaptation of Kalidasa's classic play "Malavika and Agnimitra."

LOL ancient stomping fetish.

Bonus panel, which tells you exactly everything that you ever needed to know about God:



From From Amar Chitra Katha #691, "The Syamantaka Gem," in which Krishna marries a bear.

No, really.

PS - ACK is currently promoting their "Brave Women of India Pack", which is a really good bargain if you want six comics about real women throughout history who have kicked amazing amounts of ass.

Rani Durgavati and Rani Lakshmibai kicked incredible amounts of ass.


You know, if Shakti or Durga reincarnated the way Vishnu did, I would not be surprised at all if women like that could be considered her avataras.


You seriously need to read Ramesh Menon's The Blue God. The man's either got a crazy amount of psychological issues, or was smoking something extremely potent while writing that book. The way he tells it, Hugh Hefner looks like an innocent altar boy next to Krishna.

I love the art. Really clean linework. The shrubs in the background look like they're being electrically shocked. As far as the stomping fetish goes, my policy is, "Whatever floats your boat!"
