Comic book printing from the Sunday paper to bookshelves everywhere

Since the end of the 19th century, comic books have been a fixture of American culture. Through vibrant panels filled with creative illustration and dialogue, comics bring our wildest dreams to life and tell us stories of heroes, villains, and characters in-between.

Whether your protagonist is a superhero or just an average Joe, there’s a commonality that makes comics special: artistic continuity. Comics have been periodical since its infancy in weekly newspapers. The stories inside are in a constant state of growth. The plot and characters progress with each new issue, allowing readers to be a part of a sequential masterpiece. There was a shift in the industry during the early 90s that focused on creator owned comics (looking at you Todd McFarlane). The growth of independent, creator owned comics has only gotten bigger since due to advancements in printing and availability of resources. Take control of your destiny and get your comic book printed with BookBaby.

Your first issue is just the beginning: the significance of periodical comic book printing and publishing

Although comic books pack a punch, most have low page counts, especially compared to graphic novels. The brevity of each comic is what makes them so special. There’s room for endless creativity when a story can evolve over years of multiple issues. BookBaby understands the importance of quality comic book printing. That’s why we have a satisfaction guarantee that applies to EVERY issue of your comic from issue #1 all the way to a groundbreaking #300 issue.

Creating a comic is a meticulous process. You have your hands full managing all of the panels, shading, gutters, splash pages, and speech bubbles. We make it easy and affordable for you to publish your comic book and its sequential issues. With our Print On Demand program (POD), printing your book and getting it in front of readers everywhere has never been easier. Print your comic book today.
