Don't read too much into it, it was a 'you had to be there' type running joke between a few friends after the whole Chandrayan launch. Good practice for colouring, though.

And for all that, it's a good deal of fun. Kinda like Laxman in the pre-suckage era, an era even the more ancient people like me are too young to remember, but which occasionally get represented in his vast Simon and Garfunkel beating battery of 'best of's and 'greatest hits'

Love the illustrations, although I don't get the joke.

very, very nice! the colours, of course tell the story. : )

Yea, thank you people. And kudos, Trix, for your astute nature. Hellion, if you haven't figured out the joke, just take the top right hand panel and the bottom right panel, and connect the dots.

@Ravi: Hey, I didn't know there was a gulf between eras in Laxman's work. I think I was a bit too out of the loop to gauge his work on its own merit at that time and just relied on people's opinions to conclude that he was a caricaturist to be reckoned with.
