    1st printing. By Douglas Wolk. Suddenly, comics are everywhere: a newly matured art form, filling bookshelves with brilliant, innovative work and shaping the ideas and images of the rest of contemporary culture. In Reading Comics, critic Douglas Wolk illuminates the most dazzling creators of modern comics - from Alan Moore to Alison Bechdel, Dave Sim to Chris Ware - and introduces a critical theory that explains where each fits into the pantheon of art. Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 406 pages, Text (with B&W Chapter Illustrations). Cover price $22.95.
