The collections listed above either contain comic books exclusively, or (in the case of the zine collections) contain numbers of underground and/or amateur-produced comics and mini-comics.
Comic books in these collections range from smaller, DIY-style amateur comics, to avant-garde and underground publications, to mainstream comic books produced by major companies. Special Collections’ array of comics-related collections reflects the wide variety of comic publications available throughout the 20th and 21st centuries.
