Snake Woman Special Issues 1 and 2

In 2007, Virgin Comics launched the Snake Woman Special Issues 1 and 2, a short-lived but striking series that reimagined the iconic Indian mythological figure through a modern, supernatural lens. Written by acclaimed novelist Samit Basu with lush, evocative art by Mukesh Singh, the story follows the cursed warrior princess Nagakanya as she battles ancient evils in a world where myth collides with contemporary India. Though only a single issue was released, the series stands as a bold example of Virgin's ambition to fuse global comic sensibilities with rich Indian folklore.
