Obotar, a comic book in Bengali, is an expedition into a dystopian hour. Avatar is a simulacrum, a broken effigy of the broken man. Obotar is both the rider and the passenger of a shattered auto machine. Avatar flaneurs the modern metropolis and measures an eminent fall from its relaxed heights. He takes the reader on a savage excursion of the flesh and the soul speaking in plebeian tongue and uttering from the holy passages. Obotar is not a generic comic book story; it is a jump- cut visual sensation arriving from Bengal's Bat-tala tradition of B grade popular graphic art.
