About this book

Key Terms in Comics Studies is a glossary of over 300 terms and critical concepts currently used in the Anglophone academic study of comics, including those from other languages that are currently adopted and used in English.

Written by nearly 100 international and contemporary experts from the field, the entries are succinctly defined, exemplified, and referenced. The entries are 250 words or fewer, placed in alphabetical order, and explicitly cross-referenced to others in the book.

Key Terms in Comics Studies is an invaluable tool for both students and established researchers alike.

Introduction: Key Terms in Comics Studies
Abstract
Over the last 25 years, the field of comics studies has become firmly established in Anglophone academia. The number of comics-specific book series, journals, and conferences has steadily increased, and the field continues to gain ground in universities through comics courses and degree programmes at the bachelors and masters levels. While this bodes well for the future of the field, comics scholars as of yet do not have a set disciplinary home. Instead, they are housed in a wide range of departments including, but not limited to, media studies, literature, communication, history, and art and design.
