				 We all get nostalgic for the superheroes we grew up watching on TV or reading in comic books. That's why I have a soft spot in my heart for Wonder Woman and Bionic Woman. io9's Jeff VanderMeer has just posted on his blog about his own superhero nostalgia trip with 1970s comic books, featuring traditional heroes from Hindu tales. Growing up in the Fiji Islands, the little VanderMeer was lucky enough to have access to books like these (more titles pictured below), as well as Western fare like Spider-Man.				<a href="http://io9.com/5021459/nostalgia-for-1970s-indian-superheroes" title="Click here to read more about Nostalgia for 1970s Indian Superheroes">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
