The most comprehensive reference ever compiled about the rich and enduring genre of comic books and graphic novels, from their emergence in the 1930s to their late-century breakout into the mainstream. At a time when graphic novels have expanded beyond their fan cults to become mainstream bestsellers and sources for Hollywood entertainment, Encyclopedia of Comic Books and Graphic Novels serves as an exhaustive exploration of the genre's history, its landmark creators and creations, and its profound influence on American life and culture. Encyclopedia of Comic Books and Graphic Novels focuses on English-language comics—plus a small selection of influential Japanese and European works available in English—with special emphasis on the new graphic novel format that emerged in the 1970s. Entries cover influential comic artists and writers such as Will Eisner, Alan Moore, and Grant Morrison, major genres and themes, and specific characters, comic book imprints, and landmark titles, including the pulp noir 100 Bullets, the post-apocalyptic Y: The Last Man, the revisionist superhero drama, Identity Crisis, and more. Key franchises such as Superman and Batman are the center of a constellation of related entries that include graphic novels and other imprints featuring the same characters or material.

"The World Encyclopedia of Comics is the first comprehensive survey of this universally popular art form. Covering in one volume the vast field of comic art since its inception, this monumental work contains more than 1200 cross-referenced entries in alphabetical order on comic features, artists and writers from the United States and the world. The biographical entries provide a summary of the most important authors' lives and careers, with emphasis on their work in the comic field, their stylistic and thematic contributions, their influence on other artists and their achievements in general. Biographical entries provide a brief history of outstanding features, including the names of the artists and writers who worked on them, summaries of theme and plot, a description of the main characters, the place held by that particular feature in the history and art of the comics, and its adaptations into other media. Included in this World Encyclopedia is: a global history of comic art; a chronology of the most important events in the history of comics; an analytical summary relating the comics to other aspects of twentieth century culture, a glossary of comic terms; a bibliography; a number of appendices, and a 10,000 name index. Over 800 illustrations, many in color, accompany the entries and the various sections, providing a unique visual record of the styles and achievements of the world's major comic artists."--Jacket
