Abstract
This special issue on innovative methods in multimodal comics research brings together linguistic as well as inter- and transdisciplinary contributions engaging with the semiotic and multimodal wealth of comics, graphic novels, and other forms of visual narratives. The contributions connect to recent research with new challenges and solutions and engage in dialogue across various approaches to the multimodality of comics. In our introduction to the issue, we want to address this ‘multimodality of comics’ further and give some explanatory notes on our understanding of this concept and the development of the field of research connected to it.
