Comic book

Comics is amedium used to express ideas with images, often combined with text or other visual information. It typically takes the form of a sequence ofpanels of images. Textual devices such asspeech balloons,captions, andonomatopoeia can indicate dialogue, narration, sound effects, or other information. There is no consensus among theorists and historians on a definition ofcomics; some emphasize the combination of images and text, some sequentiality or other image relations, and others historical aspects such as mass reproduction or the use of recurring characters.Cartooning and other forms ofillustration are the most common means of image-making in comics.Photo comics is a form that uses photographic images. Common forms includecomic strips,editorial andgag cartoons, andcomic books. Since the late 20th century, bound volumes such asgraphic novels, andcomic albums, have become increasingly common, along withwebcomics.

The English termcomics is used as asingular noun when it refers to the medium itself (e.g. "Comics is a visual art form."), but as a plural when referring to works collectively (e.g. "Comics are popular reading material."). (Full article...)

Selected quote

The comics medium is a very specialized area of the Arts, home to many rare and talented blooms and flowering imaginations and it breaks my heart to see so many of our best and brightest bowing down to the same market pressures which drive lowest-common-denominator blockbuster movies and television cop shows. Let's see if we can call time on this trend by demanding and creating big, wild comics which stretch our imaginations. Let's make living breathing, sprawling adventures filled with mind-blowing images of things unseen on Earth. Let's make artefacts that are not faux-games or movies but something other, something so rare and strange it might as well be a window into another universe because that's what it is.

—Grant Morrison
