The Origins of Comics by Thierry Smolderen
Thierry Smolderen presents a cultural landscape whose narrative differs in many ways from those presented by other historians of the comic strip. Rather than beginning his inquiry with the popularly accepted sequential art definition of the comic strip, Smolderen instead wishes to engage with the historical dimensions that inform that definition.
