The article is an attempt to understand the need to develop methodological and theoretical tools for defining and underlining the meaning of a comic book’s material quality. Assuming that the modern tactile and sensual aspects of a physical manifestation of the comic book medium are becoming one of its most important specifics, then the author, is trying to explore the scientific consequences of a turn towards focusing on the “materialistic” inside the comic book industry. With full understanding of that matter then a starting point for a discussion can be made about the more general offensive of printed publications against ongoing virtualization, or de-materialization of written texts.
