This Modern Day Reimagination Of The Mahabharata Will Blow Your Mind..!!

Dwapara Yuga is the third out of four yugas, or ages, described in the scriptures of Hinduism. According to the Puranas, this yuga ended the moment Krishna returned to his eternal abode of Vaikuntha. There are only two pillars of religion in the Dwapara Yuga - compassion and truthfulness. Lord Vishnu assumes the colour yellow and the Vedas are categorized into four parts - Rig, Sama, Yajur and Atharva. During these times the Brahmins are knowledgeable of two, sometimes three, Vedas, but rarely have studied all the four Vedas thoroughly. Accordingly, because of this categorization, different actions and activities come into existence.
Mahabharata X or MBX was the working title for 18 Days, an artwork done for the animation project for Liquid Comics, which is re-imagining the Mahabharata by Grant Morrison. 18 days was the duration of the final battle of the third age, the Dwapara Yuga, hence the name. Set in a warped timezone of sorts, the epic battles include flying saucers and futuristic armor, as well as demons and monsters.

Be amazed.
