  Brings together nearly two dozen essays by major writers and intellectuals who analyzed, embraced, and even attacked comic strips and comic books in the period between the turn of the century and the 1960s. From e. e. cummings to Irving Howe, this volume shows that comics have provided a key battleground in the culture wars for over a century.
