Abstract

Comic books, especially if printed in black and white, are a relatively cheap communication and entertainment medium. This means that poor people (including kids) can afford them, and also that small publishers (including kids) can afford to produce them. It thus seems natural that there have always been “alternatives” to the comics published by the big companies with their color printing and Madison Avenue artwork.
