For use when asking questions about comics or comic books when a more appropriate specific work tag doesn't exist. For example, if asking about the comics canon of Marvel use this tag, but if asking about the specific The Infinity Gauntlet comic use the work tag [the-infinity-gauntlet] instead. Use to either identify the media on a [story-identification] question or disambiguate works where the tag covers the comics and its form in other media.
Comics are a hybrid graphic medium in which images convey a sequential narrative, most commonly accompanied with written text to provide dialogue or extra information.
Questions about comics are on-topic if the stories in them are also on-topic.
The most well-known US publishers of comics are Marvel marvel and DC dc, though various smaller companies also publish notable comics, for example, image-comics and vertigo-comics
