Un gran resumen en cómic de la vida de Dasharatha, el padre de Rama. Qué bien contada la historia como presentación del propio Ramayana. Cuánto me gustan los cómics de esta colección.

The initial scene of Dasharatha committing a grave sin by separating an old couple from their only son brought tears to my eyes. It's heart-wrenchingly sad seeing a parent losing their child. That is one of the saddest things that can happen to a person. For this mistake of his, he later has to go through the same feelings of despair and desolation as his beloved son Rama is separated from him.

The story was known to me and yet the depiction made me tear up all over again. Ramayana is rightly classified as an "Epic".
