Mallika turns into comic book superhero

The Bollywood sex-bomb now slithers into a new role – that of a comic book superhero.

Hisss highness Mallika Sherawat is now set to introduce a new comic character to the West. After superheroes, vampires and werewolves, the Los Angeles-based Radical Comics will have a new superhero – a snakewoman.

The comic character is inspired from Mallika’s role of a Nagin in ‘Hisss’ which is co-produced by her brother, Vikram Singh and directed by Hollywood filmmaker Jennifer Lynch.

Not just the comic book, plans are also afoot to launch a series of graphic novels based on ‘Hisss’. If the response is good, Mallika could well emerge as the super snake comic-book heroine for the world.

The makers of the film also want to promote the movie through digital media and xBox games, CDs and DVDs.

However, the launch date of the ‘Hisss’ comic books is yet to be finalized.
