This is a bibliography dealing with animation, caricature, gag, illustrative, magazine, and political cartoons in the United States and Canada. Reflecting the substantial growth of comic art literature in recent years, it is representative of various types of publications, writing formats and styles, and languages from all over the world. This book consists of numerous resources, including an annotated directory of 66 comic art-related periodicals, a section of comic art functions, activities, and relationships with various socio-cultural phenomena, such as education, eroticism, ethnicity, race, social consciousness, and violence, as well as historical and contemporary parts on animation, caricature, gag cartoons, and political cartoons. At least 224 animators, caricaturists, and cartoonists are singled out in this book. Business, legal, and technical aspects of each genre make up other categories. The indices are systematically broken down by authors, cartoonists, characters and titles, periodicals, and subjects.
