1001 COMICS MINI-SITE
Even with 960 pages, I couldn't squeeze all the material I had into my book 1001 Comics You Must Read Before You Die. This mini-site is designed to supplement that book with updates, additional information and links... but obviously you'll still need a copy of the book!

REVIEWER: Frank Plowright
Frank Plowright, as a teen, reasoned that should comics graduate from "dem funnybooks" to "graphic novels", courses might be taught at those universities visionary enough to discard science and classics. At that point, he realized, he would then be able to make a living writing about comics.
