Comix

What is Comix?


1.

An alternate spelling of "comics", a short term for comic books. It was coined in the heyday of underground comics. It was an attempt to convey the true nature of comics as an art form (all comics, not just underground). The idea being the prefix "co-" meaning what is usually does and "mix" for a mix of illustration and written word, as opposed to the term "comics" which the general public viewed as something for children. (note: i'm just going by what I learned in a college course for comic book history)

comix is sequential art.

2.

Underground adult oriented comics that are the alternative to the mainstream super-hero stuff

Milk & Cheese, Ghost World, American Splendor, anything by the legendary artist R. Crumb

3.

A strangely comical mixture.

Pick your comix that appeals to you most.

4.

pornographic comics or comic books

On a porn site I saw some horribly drawn Gilligan's Island comix

5.

The urban slang version of the plural "comics". Something that idiots use when they want to sound 'hip' and 'cool'

See? Right there on the syllabus, Maus, and Maus II are 'comix'
