The University Library now houses a growing number of comic books and graphic novels. The collection includes a wide range of comics, graphic novels, manga as well as scholarship on comics studies. Examples include comics related to superheroes, comic strips, non-fiction & memoirs, science fiction, horror, young adults, and more. The library also has a special collection of Latinx comics which contains over 80 comics and graphic novels by and about Hispanic/Latinx authors and artists and/or feature Hispanic/Latinx characters. Learn more about Latinx comics and superheroes as well as more about the library's Latinx comics collection and you can browse the Latinx Comic collection online. The Latinx comics special collection is generously sponsored by a grant from the President’s Commission on Equity and Inclusive Excellence.
The Comics & Graphic Novels collection is located on the second floor of the library near the elevator. Browse the featured titles below or search the library catalog to find more!

You can then further limit your search by author, format, date of publication, etc. using the options in the left sidebar.
