Comic Book Printing: Is there a Standard Comic Book Size?
![A person reading a Comic Book](https://transform.octanecdn.com/crop/900x633/https://octanecdn.com/colorvisionprintingcom/colorvisionprintingcom_318630075.png)
There's been a growing trend away from "Standards" and toward Differentiation
Because there is no absolute standard for the dimensions of comic books , independent
comic book creators are free to choose any size they want. This is exactly what
has been happening in recent years as creators explore different sizes in an
effort to make their comic books unique.
As long as the printer you choose allows total customization,
you are free to experiment with non-traditional sizes and formats.
What would generate the most intrigue and make your comic
book stand out? An oversized book? An undersized book? A square book? Your
comic book dimensions are completely up to you.
The only sizing constraint might be if the comic books are
planned to be part of a series. In that case, the size should remain the same
throughout the series. The books could still be a unique size, but once the
size is determined it should remain consistent for the entire series.
