The volume provides an excellent resource for anyone interested in this topic, and will doubtless remain so as the field grows further in the coming years. * Modern Language Review * This is a book about how to approach comics that in itself approaches comics with finesse. The different complementary sections draw upon uses of critical theory, historical contextualisation, artists and audiences, and what the comics themselves say, directly as well as implicitly. The work is a masterclass in applied method and will be of use to all who study comics, be it professionally, for the fun of it, or both. * Laurence Grove, Professor of French and Text/Image Studies and Director of the Stirling Maxwell Centre, University of Glasgow, UK *
