Not quite art; pioneers; comical comics; action and adventure; girl's comics; going underground; picking up the pieces; a new mainstream; new alternatives; international influences.
Roger Sabin is an arts journalist and lecturer at Central St Martin's College of Art in London. He is the author of the highly acclaimed Adult Comics: An Introduction.
'Here at last is an authoritative and beautifully produced history of this vigorous and versatile artform, which covers as much of the whole field as a single book could.' (Guardian) 'It isn't the only such book you'll find out there - just the best ... Production values? A-plus.' (Newsweek) 'A handsome book with informative text.' (Daily Telegraph) 'Comics, Comix & Graphic Novels is as energetic as a jolt of double espresso - and as simultaneously appealing to both sophisticated and street sensibilities … under Sabin's fluid hand, images and text come together like an expert cartoonist's frame-by-frame assemblage of drawings and dialogue balloons.' (Wired)
