Aims and Scope


Studies in Comicsaims to describe the nature of comics, to identify the 
medium as a distinct art form, and to address the medium’s formal 
properties. The emerging field of comics studies is a model for 
interdisciplinary research and in this spirit this journal welcomes all 
approaches. This journal is international in scope and provides an 
inclusive space in which researchers from all backgrounds can present 
new thinking on comics to a global audience. The journal will promote 
the close analysis of the comics page/text using a variety of 
methodologies. Its specific goal, however, is to expand the relationship 
between comics and theory and to articulate a ‘theory of comics’. The 
journal also includes reviews of new comics, criticism and exhibitions, 
and will offer space for cutting-edge and emergent creative work.
