Comic Art of the United States through 2000, Animation and Cartoons

JOHN A. LENT has pioneered all aspects of Asian and Caribbean mass communications and popular culture, as well as comic art, development communication, and women and the media. His 60 books and 800 articles dating back to the 1960s are among the first writings on these subjects. He has held positions as Rogers Distinguished Professor at the University of Western Ontario, Visiting Professor at Shanghai University, and since 1976, Professor of Communication at Temple University. Dr. Lent also serves as Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Comic Art.

"This fourth volume in a planned six-part set on comic art adds much needed scholarship to the broadly defined subject area....While one may question the value of bibliographies in an age of online indexes, much of the literature on comic art is journalistic, anecdotal, or brief, making identifying materials on the topic difficult. A search in the common databases will not yield all the citations listed in this work. Though it will yield some that are not included, the value of this bibliography is in uncovering elusive references found in bibliographies, bibliographic periodicals and print indexes, via word-of-mouth, and in the compiler's own database of almost 400 mass communications periodicals. Thus it is the only source of its kind on the subject. For serious scholars of comic arts, this work is indispensable....Recommended. Upper-level undergraduates through faculty/researchers." - Choice
