FORMATS OF COMICS

Comics come in several different formats, such as:

Comic strips. These are short, usually humorous comics that appear in newspapers and magazines. A comic strip is a sequence of drawings arranged in interrelated panels to display brief humor or form a narrative, often serialized, with text in balloons and captions. Popular comic strips include Garfield, Dilbert, Calvin and Hobbes, and others.



Comic books. These comics are printed in books the size of a small magazine. Many comic books are of the superhero genre, featuring the adventures of costumed heroes like Batman or Captain America, though other genres exist as well.

Graphic novels. These are comics printed in books with many more pages than a magazine-style comic. They often tell a complete story, and come in many genres, from romance to comedy to drama. Some well-known graphic novels are Maus and Persepolis.


Webcomics. These are comics originally published on the internet. They come in nearly every length and genre imaginable. Penny Arcade, PVP, and Achewood are popular webcomics.


Manga. These are comics from Japan, where they are published in thick magazines that contain stories from many different artists. They come in many different genres, such as action, romance, comedy, drama, and so on. Titles like Naruto, Fruits Basket, and Love Hina are very popular.


Trade paperbacks. When an American comic book or Japanese manga series is very popular, it will sometimes be collected in a volume containing several chapters of the story.
