Publishing history
Unmad was founded in Dhaka, Bangladesh by Kazi Khaleed Ashraf and Ishtiaq Hossain. The first issue was dated May 1978. The schedule was initially quarterly, but it switched to a monthly schedule in 1991. Normally, each issue is 28 pages, with longer special issues at the two holidays Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. An issue typically contains between eight and ten "stories", each drawn by a different cartoonist. Management has not sold advertisising because of the effort required to do so, and to avoid editorial influence by advertisers.
