33rd Anniversary Special Issue pages 105..... Since Tinkle turns 33, we have decided to call it the 3-bute issue. We pay 3-butes to Uncle Pai Mr. Anant Pai, our founder-editor and to the first iconic writers and artists who shaped Tinkle Kamala Chandrakant, Subba Rao, Luis Fernandes, Pradeep Sathe, Ram Waeerkar, V. B. Halbe, Dev Nadkarni, and many others. You will read more about some of them in the pages inside, along with the stories they had worked on. A loving 3-bute is also due to you, our readers. From the year Tinkle began in 1980 to today, we have had new generations of readers enjoying Tinkle. Some of your parents may have also read Tinkle as kids. Such a long journey we have had together. And what a fun journey it has been! How better to celebrate your spirit and support than to feature a Fan Fiction story Also, this is an All-Star issue, which means it pays 3-bute to most of the Tinkle Superstars—our beloved Tinkle Toons, some who started their journey with the magazine and others who were born almost yesterday! And if that was not enough, a lot of our Toons bullied the elves and demanded a story where they all come together.
