Comics Research Bibliography 2012 print edition now for sale


Since 1996, John Bullough and I have been working on the online Comics Research Bibliography. In recent years, I began working with John Lent who had published 10 volumes of citations through an academic press (at a price of over $1000 for the whole set) and started arranging citations according to his system. In 2009, the International Journal of Comic Art published a print version that I compiled using Lent's arrangement. This bibliography of articles and books on all aspects of comic and cartoon art including comic books, comic strips, cartoons, animation, editorial cartoons, is newly updated as of the end of 2011. The two volumes of books include tens of thousands of citations with links to information on comic book movies, the Danish Islam cartoon controversy, cartoon responses to 9-11 terrorism and other topical matters. * marks entries or articles that are new since the last printed version in the International Journal of Comic Art at the end of 2009 – 4,816 of them.

Volume 1 includes Comic books & strips of the United States, and is 435 pages for $16.50.

Volume 2 includes caricature, animation, gag and editorial cartooning in the United States, and all aspects of comic art in the rest of the world, and is 400 pages for $15.00.

A complete and searchable pdf electronic version with working hotlinks is also available for $10.
