What does it mean to see comics as art? This book looks at the singular status of comics in the French cultural landscape. Bandes dessineÌes have long been published in French newspapers and magazines. In the early 1960s, a new standard format emerged: large hardback books, called albums. Albums played a key role in the emergence of the ninth art and its acceptance among other forms of literary narrative. From Barbarella in 1964 to La Ballade de la mer saleÌe in 1975, from AsteÌrix and its million copies to Tintin and its screen versions, within the space of just a few years the comics landscape underwent a deep transformation.0The album opened up new ways of creating, distributing, and reading bandes dessineÌes. This shift upended the market, transformed readership, initiated new transmedia adaptations, generated critical discourse, and gave birth to new kinds of comics fandom. These transformations are analysed through a series of case studies, each focusing on a noteworthy album. By retracing the publishing and critical history of these classic bandes dessineÌes, this book questions the blind spots of a canon based on the album format and uncovers the legitimisation processes that turned bande dessineÌe into the ninth art. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and indexes. 505 0 $a 1.
