#743 - Smita (MMC) aka Kelly Green

Writer Leonard Starr and Artist Stan Drake teamed up in 1980 to create Kelly Green targeting  an adult audience and featured nudity and violence, the likes of which would have horrified most of the western comics readers of that time.

In 80s, it was difficult to digest Axa in India, and Madhu Muskan Comics advertized as character with  Indian cultural touch 🤐

Hindi version has disappointed with poor translation, forcefully giving Indian names ...

Kelly Green as Smita... and so on. Why? Were the team members big fans of a south Indian adult film star "Sxxx Smita" of that time?

In fact, Kelly Green comics are  one of the best-looking crime comics ever produced.  

Till 2015, only 4 were released in Eng and 3 in Hindi (vol 2 to 4).

Classic Comics Press has released Kelly Green: The Complete Collection

(272 pages; 8 1/2 x 11 Hardcover; black and white with 16 page color section)

It has vol. 1 to 4 and one more - never before published in English,

Volume 5 - The Comic-Con Heist.

Volume 1 - "The Go-Between!"
