The Rough Guide to Graphic Novels is the ultimate companion to the expanding world of the "literary comic book." Written by industry insider Danny Fingeroth, it includes: The History: The story of the comics medium, from sequential art in Egyptian tombs, through the superhero boom of the 1940s to the birth of the graphic novel movement and the latest online offerings. The Canon: 60 must-read graphic novels, including the genre-defining Maus and A contract with God, plus modern classics-in-the-making Fun Home and Alice in Southerland. The Icons: Profiles of legends Harvey Pekar, Chris Ware, Denis Kitchen and other amazing illustrators, writers and publishers who've helped win respect for this once marginalized art form. And Everything Else You Need to Know: Film and television adaptations, manga, conventions, books, magazine and websites.
