Day 10 of 30 days of Kokaachi

When we were kids, the infamous kid-napping gangs were a more real threat than the Kokaachi monster. We couldn't play outside the house on our own, especially the vicinity of the compound gate which was forbidden territory...

Vishnu tapped into that collective fear and created a Kokaachi who hung from the tall coconut trees in Kerala, bag at it's side, ready to pounce on unsuspecting kids returning home after school. We're big fans > Tina and Vishnu have co-created one of the 6 Matchbox Comix (which comes out this week), he's currently illustrating a story from the upcoming Mixtape Vol 3 and we hope to tell a lot more stories with him.

Day 8 of 30 days of Kokaachi

Sometimes, the scariest Kokaachi aren't imaginary beings, but evil, everyday household appliances that simply don't like the sight of you. Think of the stalker-killer bike that's out to get Calvin all the time. Or Siddhartha Tripathi who was traumatised by the tv-gas cylinder-mop-gang who pounced on him whenever his mother wasn't around. :)

Did you know that kozhukkattas* are kokaachi's favourite snacks? Manoj A. Menon's Kokaachi is making a quick getaway with a jar full of them.

*Kozhukkattas are sweet snacks native to Kerala; like momos, but filled with coconut & jaggery

Comic of the day: DEMO by Brian Wood & Becky Cloonan Brian Wood and Becky Cloonan are two of my favourite storytellers in the medium and Demo inspired me to write comics & to co-start Manta Ray and Kokaachi. DEMO is a collection of 18 stories, each featuring a new cast of characters in self-contained stories that primarily deal with power (both the super kind and the real-world, relationship kind). @brianwood does a fabulous job of going against the grain in these stories, and @beckycloonan powers it up with her super-charged black-&-white art. 8 years have passed since I first read Demo, yet the strength of the stories in it have not diminished a bit. Looking back, its even harder to believe that this was just their second collaboration and at a nascent stage in their comics careers. The unique & diverse stories, the completely relatable characters in a believable real-world setting, and the extraordinary circumstances & consequences of their 'powers' makes Demo a definite must-read.

Not every Kokaachi is kid-friendly. When we first saw this Koka that Jasjyot created, it sent a shiver down our spine!
