“…There are indications that we are moving towards establishing a more cohesive field of comics studies, as there are more and more academic courses, libraries, grants, and research projects focusing on comics, but comics studies still seem to be at a pre-paradigmatic level (Strömberg, 2016, p. 14). The fact that there are new publications such as Reader Superhelden (Etter, Nehrlich & Nowotny, 2018), Comics Studies Here and Now (Aldama, 2018) and The Oxford Handbook of Comic Book Studies (Aldama, 2020), does indicate a canon being established. The texts in these volumes span from journalistic to academic writing, from historical analyses to close readings, from psychoanalysis to cultural studies -so the field of comics studies still seems to be very much interdisciplinary.…”

The last few years have seen a flurry of academic activities on comics in the Nordic countries. But are we on the verge of establishing an independent field or a discipline of comics studies, or both? And if so, is this desirable? On an international level, comics studies have for some time been an intellectual field and can now be said to be on a pre-paradigmatic level as a discipline. In the Nordic countries, the field of comics studies has grown rapidly the last few years, but it is still very much dispersed, with researchers working at different departments and within a number of disciplines. There are tendencies towards a maturing into a more cohesive field, but this is a recent development. The establishing of a comics studies discipline, though keeping an open "rural mode" of knowledge production to prevent a loss of the positive aspects of interdisciplinary research, would facilitate the possibilities for professors' seats, journals, specific grants, recurring conferences and research libraries -and thus a more rapid growth of comics studies.
