Review of 'Faster Than a Speeding Bullet' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

A decent enough overview of the history of main stream comics. Because even if they started out more on the outside, every book mentioned in here did become pretty popular in their own right. A good introduction to the defining moments in graphic history. But if you aren't already into comics and graphics novels I'm not sure why you would pick up this book either.

It did remind me of a few books I had been meaning to read but weren't currently on my TBR.
