You have got to be kidding me. Wasn’t Spider-Man India enough? If I recall correctly it was a major flop. Now we have this horrible idea: <\/p>\n
\nImagine the popular American youth comic idol Archie conversing in Hindi, chasing Veronica, who’s draped in a sari while Jughead’s burger gets replaced by an idli and Moose dumps baseball for cricket. Flights of fancy? Not anymore.<\/p>\n
The US-based owner of the famous comic brand Archie Entertainment is planning a large scale expansion in India, for which it is even looking at localising the content to suit the market requirements.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Part of the charm of these comics (Archies, Spiderman etc) is the US settings and this will ruin it. I don’t have a problem with a hindi translation of the comic, thats a good thing and will probably increase their sales but “Indianizing” it is just wrong. If I want to read a comic with an Indian setting I will read one of the many Indian comics: Nagraj, Chacha Chaudhri, Super Commando Dhruv etc. <\/p>\n
What kind of weirdo’s come up with these idea’s?<\/p>\n
