    Asian Comics HC (2015 UPM) 1-1ST

    1st printing. By John A Lent. Grand in its scope, Asian Comics dispels the myth that, outside of Japan, the continent is nearly devoid of comic strips and comic books. Relying on his fifty years of Asian mass communication and comic art research, John A. Lent shows that nearly every country had a golden age of cartooning and has experienced a recent rejuvenation of the art form. Lent covers the nations and regions of Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 400 pages, Text (with B&W Photos and Illustrations). Cover price $60.00.
