Reading Notes: The Pandava Princes

This comic book actually focused on Bheema more than anything or anyone. My favorite part was his defeat of Bakasura. He rides the little carriage out to the cave and sits down to eat the food. Bheema just sits and chills eating this food until he's done.

He realized that Bakasura is throwing stuff at him and he just calmly continues eating his food. After he finishes he gets up and kills him. He seems highly annoyed by the whole deal and its kind of amusing.

I would retell this story from his perspective and emphasize on his annoyance by this feared rakshasa.

Drona approaches me saying, "I have heard a word that you claim yourself to be my pupil." I nod my head. "Yes, ask of me anything and I shall deliver." Drona thinks for a second. "Chop off thy right thumb, for that is what I must have of you." I nod, and with a smile and my head held high grab for my knife. I place my hand on a tall rock nearby and quickly slice my thumb from my right hand. The blood begins to gush and quickly I rip a piece of my garment off to wrap my severed hand in. I turn to hand my prized thumb to Drona. And then it hits me. How might I have any skill left witho...
