Good history of the dvevelopment of graphic novels & comics
The History Channel did a good treatment of the history of comic books and the changes that they have gone through over the years. Although I've long since gotten rid of my comic book collection, it brought back fond memories of childhood and gave a behind the scenes look at what went into making the comics I used to read. The interviews are great, including people from the industry - creators, artists, producers, collectors - and the people that they've influenced. It explains how comic books evolved from pulp stories into what they are today as graphic novels. For the price, it was worth having. I caught a portion of this on the History Channel and decided to add it to my collection.
