XIII Collector's Edition in Colombo

XIII collector’s edition has been a dream for those who live in Sri Lanka. If you call Lion comics office they’ll ask to send demand draft and if u try to get a demand draft from bank they’ll say NO as Sri Lankan government have strict rules to avoid money flowing out of the country. Yeap, true if you go with documents they’ll give you demand draft but for buying a comics book where on earth we can get documents??

I really wish Lion comics will setup an online portal with credit-card or PayPal payment method. Both sides can benefit from this method as we can avoid any dealer fee!

Recently Vimalaharan commented on one of my posts about the availability of the book in Colombo. I checked it myself and came home with jackpot :). Thanks Vimalaharan.

Those who are willing to buy the XIII book in Colombo, Sri Lanka can buy it from the fruit shop next to Kathiresan kovil, Bambalapittiya (Colombo-4). Book is priced around 700 LKR. Currently they don’t have any book with them but you can place an order via them. Also they have few collection of old Lion and Muthu comics which worth a look. Alternatively you can reach them for inquiries via phone at +94-11-2590346

Good luck comics addict. See you all soon in another post. I'm busy right now with the book lol :P

XIII Collectors Edition is still a Dream

So it’s true that Vijayan from Lion Comics still holding on the plan of releasing “இரத்தப் படலம்” very soon. But the problem is they couldn’t reach the magic number of 900 orders so far. As of now they've got around 500 orders only :(

If you’ve planned to buy one, I think this is the high time to order one. As usually this issue of Lion Comics also delayed and Vijayan has given the reasons. It’s good that now they’re thinking of different business model where they can directly reach their customers.

Marvel comics now having their online library where people can read good number of old classic comics by paying small amount $5 per month. I think Lion should also adapt to one of these models, in order to get more out of the hungry Tamil Comic lover.

Guys! Please do Pre-Order for the XIII collector’s Edition (in Tamil), the more you wait, the more we all have to wait. Hurry up.
