Presenting a rare gem of a Tamil cover today. This can be described as one of the ten 'mythical' forefathers of Amar Chitra Katha (ACK) as we know it today.I call them as mythical, because everyone knows that the first ten issues exist, but it is extremely hard to find one.<br />
<br />
As history goes, the first ten issues of ACK were reprints of popular western folktales and it was not until issue No.11 that indigenous stories began appearing, starting with 'Krishna'.Another interesting fact is that these ten issues were published only in regional languages and not in English.<br />
<br />
This is issue No.8 and titled in Tamil as 'Oz Naatu Mayavi' which as you would have guessed from the cover stands for 'Wizard of Oz'. This comic was published sometime in 1967<br />

The storyline itself is pretty simple and features a Peace loving Dove
called as Dovey as the central character. Dovey resides in the clouds
and appears on Earth from time to time to vanquish hatred from the
hearts of the people and spread Peace among them. In this story, Dovey
plays guardian angel to a kid named Anik, who is targeted by an evil
hawk named Chonchi, the arch enemy of Dovey! <br />

<br />
Dovey also has special interest in Cricket and it is reflected in the
comic Logo, which states 'Cricket for Peace'. This comic was published
in May 1987<br />
