The workshop was an introduction to the world of under-ground comics in which students learned to create and mass-produce comics using commonly available materials such as printer paper, pens ,black ink, whitner and xerox machines.
These comics frequently deal with uncensored content and themes and are distributed in fairs or niche shops out of the ecosystem of traditional publishing and distribution. 20 students each made a 8 page comic in 4 days. The comics was set in the universe of an old Indian film, preferably black and white. They feature characters in films, an alternate take on the film or a story set within the film universe. 
 
The faculty guides were Arjun Gupte and Sanjay Guria and the workshop was conducted over a period of 10 days in National Institute of Design, Paldi, Ahmedabad.
 

Everything is hand drawn and no digital medium, apart from the xerox machine, was used in creating the final comics.My first attempt at making black and white comics. Hope you like the story. 
Feedback is appreciated.
