Rs 1100+Shipping; TITANIC, The Last Great Images, by Dr Robert Ballard, Very Big Sized, Hardcover, with Dustcover, 2008 Published; Dead men tell no tales. Dead ships, however, do. Over 70 years after the Titanic sank, marine geologist Robert Ballard discovered the wreck 12,500 feet beneath the icy North Atlantic. In this book, Ballard shares haunting photographs that capture both the ship’s grandeur and its tragic decay—rusted metal, scattered debris, and poignant relics like a porcelain doll’s face and an empty shoe. This illustrated volume, paired with a National Geographic special, combines underwater photography, original design renderings, and charts of the debris field to present the clearest view yet of the Titanic. It reveals not only the craftsmanship and rigid class divisions of the era, but also unforgettable images of terror, courage, and humanity—showing why the Titanic continues to fascinate the world.

Part-1 and Part-2 of The Adventures of G-Man (Mini Sized Parle-G Freebie comics that came FREE with Chandamama issues), Quite a Rare Set. Both issues—October 2005 (Part 1) and November 2005 (Part 2)—are rare promotional editions, valued among collectors for their crossover between Chandamama’s legacy and India’s early superhero merchandising.
1) Format and Distribution: These were mini-sized, multi-page freebie booklets tucked inside copies of Chandamama Magazine. Instead of standard narrative pages, they functioned as standalone insert collectibles.
2) The Promotional Strategy: Developed between 2004 and 2005, the character G-Man was a corporate superhero custom-created by the marketing team of Parle Products. The "G" in G-Man explicitly mirrored the iconic "G for Genius" advertising slogan used by Parle-G biscuits
3) Cultural context: The series was part of Chandamama’s mid‑2000s revival, aiming to modernize its storytelling by introducing superheroes inspired by Shaktimaan and Captain Vyom.
4) Brand tie‑in: Parle‑G’s sponsorship linked the comic to children’s snack marketing, making G‑Man a promotional mascot for the brand’s “Power‑Supply” campaign. Books once sold and shipped are not eligible for return or cancellation.

05/06/2026

Rs 699+Shipping; Wasteland, No-1 by DC Comics, published in Dec-1987, Extremely Rare Comic, Bagged and Boarded. It is a landmark debut in psychological horror and surreal storytelling.

Story-1: "Foo Goo" depicts a chilling, synchronized su***de pact driven by a mysterious force that compelled victims to consume lethal toxins

Story-2: "R. ab." explores a sterile, bureaucratic dystopia where a couple faces the horrific, systematic erasure of an existing person through a "retroactive abortion"

Story-3: "Sewer Rat" follows a man's drug-induced descent into a claustrophobic, nightmarish underworld, blurring the line between hallucination and a grim, filthy reality

These narratives emphasize psychological horror and satire over traditional, monster-driven narratives. Books once sold and shipped are not eligible for return or cancellation.
