Phantomville

Phantomville is an Indian graphic-novel company established by writer and artist Sarnath Banerjee together with Anindya Roy. The company was conceived as a publishing and creative platform for Indian writers and artists working in the graphic-novel form, with an emphasis on mature subject matter rather than comics aimed exclusively at children. Its stated purpose places Phantomville within the development of India’s contemporary graphic-novel culture, supporting original work by local creators and giving such projects a dedicated publishing identity. The company’s associated works include Corridor, The Barn Owl’s Wondrous Capers, The Believers, and Kashmir Pending. These titles are connected with the early Indian graphic-novel movement and reflect Phantomville’s interest in literary, socially engaged, and artistically distinctive storytelling. The company has also been associated with an upcoming, untitled graphic novel about the Indian hockey player Dhyan Chand. Public reference material does not provide a confirmed founding year, corporate ownership structure, headquarters beyond India, financial information, or a current operating status. It also does not identify additional executives or provide a verified current website URL. Phantomville is therefore best documented as a specialized Indian graphic-novel publishing venture whose importance lies in creating a platform for mature Indian graphic narratives.

Phantomville was set up in India by writer and artist Sarnath Banerjee and Anindya Roy. The venture was created to provide a dedicated platform for Indian writers and artists producing graphic novels for mature audiences. This objective distinguished it from children’s comic publishing and positioned the company within the emerging Indian graphic-novel scene. The company’s documented catalogue and associated projects include Corridor, The Barn Owl’s Wondrous Capers, The Believers, and Kashmir Pending. These works demonstrate Phantomville’s role in presenting original graphic narratives connected with Indian creators and contemporary literary and artistic practice. The company has also been linked to an untitled planned graphic novel concerning Dhyan Chand, the Indian hockey player. Available reference material does not establish Phantomville’s exact founding year, legal structure, ownership, financial performance, headquarters, or present-day activity. Consequently, its detailed corporate history remains limited in public sources. The available record supports describing Phantomville primarily as a specialized graphic-novel company and publishing platform rather than assigning it a broader publishing or media profile.
