A long time ago comics acquired a status of contemporary art balancing on the edge of illustrations and texts. Someone is delighted with comic book illustrations, while others do not see anything remarkable in them and remain indifferent. However, anyone has definitely heard of comics. This unique painted world is known even to those who do not read them.
Somebody may think that these illustrated stories are the present-day entertainment, but the very first comic superheroes such as, for instance, Captain America by Marvel, firstly appeared during World War II and the aim of this graphic novel was to raise people’s patriotic spirit. This example, as well as many others, shows that comics design can have a great captivating power, which is able to attract readers’ attention to some problems.
Some contemporary popular comics become the basis of famous Hollywood blockbusters, for instance, “The Avengers” by Marvel or “The Dark Knight Rises” by DC Comics. The severe confrontation between these two biggest comic book publishers, especially in the film production industry, is also known to many people.
Actual comic book production even gave birth to several festivals such as the American “San-Diego Comic-Con International” or French “Angouleme International Comics Festival.” These events are known all over the world and were firstly planned as comics exhibitions and meetings for comic book illustrators and designers.
It is not surprising that comics design and book illustration services are very respected in modern society because graphic novels can give a wide creative space for many writers and graphic designers who want to express themselves effectively, to share their thoughts and feelings with a large number of people worldwide, and to attract readers’ attention to significant problems.
