Erotic comics is a comics genre that use erotic scenes to engage the audience.
An early genre were comic books known as Tijuana bibles that began appearing in the U.S. in the 1920s and lasted until the publishing of glossy colour men's magazines commenced. These were crude hand drawn scenes often using popular characters from cartoons and culture.
Erotic comics that were sold more or less above the counter started to appear towards the middle of the 1960s in Europe with series such as the fumetti neri in Italy and authors such as Guido Crepax (Valentina), Paul Cuvelier (Epoxy), Jean-Claude Forest (Barbarella) and Guy Peellaert (Les aventures de Jodelle) in France and Belgium.
