Well, I am not sure what you are implying by this post. But where is the
comparison between a "New York Times Bestseller" and Amar Chitra Katha?
Apples and Oranges?

Anyways, I am in agreement with you in that there are loads of people in
India who believe this. Doesn't every religion have some version of
Armageddon? I guess that is something made up by "elders" to keep us
unruly humans in check. But that is not what this post is about. I agree
that this is equally ridiculous. We tend to take some "books" too
literally.
