Abstract |
The ubiquitousness and relatively low cost of comic books, combined with their proven socio-historical, recreational, and educational value, render them a highly desirable commodity in libraries, archives, and classroom collections. The article offers practical guidelines for the evaluation and acquisition of these materials. A concise history of the field and many useful appendices (e.g., bestseller lists, a bibliography, a breakdown of currently issued titles) have been included.
