Komiks: Comic Art In Russia -

Published in 2010 by the University Press of Mississippi, José Alaniz’s Komiks: Comic Art in Russia is the first comprehensive academic study to analyze the history of sequential art in Russia, tracing its development from traditional lubok prints to contemporary digital formats.
