 | | Since then, there have been millions (perhaps billions) of comics printed, and comics are still among the most popular of art forms, continuing to branch out to new demographics, and influencing other entertainment media like movies and television. |
 | | A big, thick coffee-table hardcover (complete with dust jacket), CBE is a handsomely bound, abundantly illustrated overview whose entries encompass only the most influential and popular stuff. |
 | | And although it doesn't intend to be a comprehensive history of comics, CBE does include an easy-to-follow flowchart, printed on the front and back inside covers, to show the progression of the industry from 1922 to the present. |
