Tinkle and Amar Chitra Katha are set to get a new lease of life courtesy ACK Media

Remember summer vacations spent following the deeds of Supandi or being lost in bygone times of princes, princesses and evil warlords? That was thanks to the comic books from Amar Chitra Katha and Tinkle Magazine.

And now ACK Media has announced the acquisition of the series from India Book House (IBH). “The idea is to create an integral online media company. Earlier Amar Chitra Katha (ACK) and Tinkle were only in the forms of books but now you can get them in their virtual avatars in the forms of toys, puzzles and posters,” explains Samir Patil, CEO of ACK.

Patil’s team has set up the online version where two new stores have been set up and children can buy them and read them, become a member of the online club, write their stories and so on. They can also download wall papers and play games.

To get on to the online version log on to www.tinkleonline.com.
