Fun, fun and more fun. This issue has more pages, more Tinkle Toons and loads of exciting features. After all we celebrate both the Tinkle Anniversary and Children’s Day on November 14! So, the theme for the issue is 3-bute. We pay 3-bute to the iconic writers and artists of Tinkle with get-to-know features on Subba Rao, Luis Fernandes, Ram Waeerkar, VB Halbe, Pradeep Sathe and Dev Nadkarni. What’s more? Each feature is accompanied by a story from our Classics! Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and a Sherlock Holmes ComiClassic feature in our 3-bute to famous authors. What better 3-bute to our beloved readers than a Fan Fiction story? And finally, we have a 3-bute to Tinkle Toons. With an All-Toon issue, we have nearly all characters featuring in this issue, whether through individual stories or mash-ups. So, there’s Suppandi in his new avatar of Super Suppandi, Shikari Shambu, Dental Diaries, Ina Mina Mynah Mo, SuperWeirdoes, Tantri the Mantri... need we go on? Not to be left behind are a Spotlight on one of Tinkle’s founders Subba Rao, Things You Didn’t Know About the Tinkle Team, and to wrap it all up, a sweet incident from Uncle Pai’s life. Oh, did we forget the FREE Tinkle Toon book labels inside the issue? Enjoy!
