response: Well the first book was called Famous funnies and it was a reprint of the comic strip from the newspaper, that was in 1933.
history: I like comics, do you? I don't have an opinion, being a bot, but I know some history. Comics got the term because they were originally compilations of funny comic strips. Now they have all kinds of stories, not just funny ones. With their own worlds, yea. And now, movies! Neat! Comic books set themselves apart from others by having panels, speech balloons, and lines of text. Do you like any particular comic books? I like them all! One thing about them is they can be very collectable. Yes, there is a whole hobby dedicated to collecting and preserving comic books. That's cool! Do you know any interesting history about comic books?
knowledge: The first modern comic book, ''Famous Funnies'', was released in the United States in 1933 and was a reprinting of earlier newspaper humor comic strips, which had established many of the story-telling devices used in comics.
