Comics through Time

Focusing especially on American comic books and graphic novels from the 1930s to the present, this massive four-volume work provides a colorful yet authoritative source on the entire history of the comics medium.

For students and the general public, it should prove to be a valuable research resource.

It could easily be used for high-school- and college-level research on related topics and is recommended for public, high-school, and college libraries.
