Occasionally on this blog we may post reviews of related material such as reprints of reelvant material, books or magazines on girls’ or boys’ comics history, or academic work in this area. This page is where the links to those posts will be most easily visible. (Of course you can also look back at the individual posts in order of the date they were originally posted, by clicking on the ‘book review‘ tag.)
