The American comic book collection includes 80,000 comic books of every kind, including superhero, war, underground, funny animal, new wave, and over 2,000 from the 1940's. In addition, the Library holds about 2,000 issues on black-white- microfilm. Most newly published comic books are being routinely acquired through donation. It has been estimated that the U.S. has produced 100,000 comic books since 1934, and other similar estimates lead us to believe that we own more than half of what could possibly be included. As it stands, few of the longer runs are complete, and the missing issues are usually the older ones. Because of the fragility and great expense of most of these items, we are not actively purchasing originals. The limited microfilm available is being purchased instead, and donations of older comic books are regularly received. To have a comprehensive collection of U.S. comic books is not a short-term goal of the collection, although the possibility is being kept in mind against the day when microfilm or other good-quality stable formats become available.

About Puerto Vallarta Ecotourism

Puerto Vallarta has much to offer nature lovers: reserves, hiking, sea turtle sanctuaries, and an abundance of flora and fauna. The splendid natural scenery is one of the main attractions of the destination; this is supported by the wide variety of wildlife inhabiting its marshes, which serve as breeding grounds for fish and crustaceans. Crocodiles and birds also nest there, hiding in the foliage of the vegetation.
From November through April, you can take a boat out to see whales and their offspring, or perhaps witness their mating rituals. If you’re lucky enough, a curious young whale will come up to your boat and let you touch it. You can also have the captivating experience of swimming with sea lions and dolphins.

Comic books from outside the U.S. and Europe are collected with the intent to represent the available body of material. Comics are rapidly developing into an international medium, so that more translations are available in English every year. Most of these translations are acquired through purchase or donation. Newsstand comic books from other countries are obtained through donations by publishers and correspondence with foreign collectors, as well as by asking staff and faculty to pick up samples when trave ling. Monographic history and criticism, and occasional reprint volumes, are ordered through normal library channels.
