A guide to comic books across generations

Comic books are presented here as both a long-running popular art form and a field with a wide range of series to explore. Nicole Horning’s guide gives young fans an entry point through informative text, sidebars, and graphic organizers, connecting the medium’s history with its present-day popularity and future. The focus on appreciation and exploration makes the book a broad introduction rather than a guide to one particular series or character.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young fans beginning to explore comic books
  • Readers interested in comic books’ history and present-day popularity
  • Children ages 9–12 who benefit from sidebars and graphic organizers
