- visioninmyblood 11mo agoShould we not start with Ramayana and Mahabartham? Although they are religious texts they had a lot of science fiction storylines.

- abundanceitis 11mo agothis looks like India's answer to Works In Progress
- adityaathalye 11mo agoThey reference Works in Progress in their "pitch us" page: https://altermag.com/pitch-us https://altermag.com/pitch-us Though I wouldn't say "India's answer to..." that's just lazy hyperbole. Give the magazine's makers credit, not some arbitrary national identity. Works In Progress is a Stripe production. Alter Magazine is a production by a parent company "Alt Carbon". That's the similarity.
