Two young Polish boys read a Polish edition of a Mickey Mouse Sunday colored supplement while standing among the ruins of a building in Warsaw. September 1939.

Comics frequently takes the form of juxtaposed sequences of panels of images. Often textual devices such as speech balloons, captions, cartouches, and onomatopoeia indicate dialogue, narration, sound effects, or other information. Size and arrangement of panels contribute to narrative pacing.

Since the late 20th century, bound volumes such as graphic novels, comics albums, and tankōbon have become increasingly common, and online webcomics have proliferated in the 21st century.

Scholars have posited a pre-history as far back as the Lascaux cave paintings.
