"A book is a set or collection of written, printed, illustrated, or blank sheets, made of paper, parchment, or other various material, usually fastened together to hinge at one side. A single sheet within a book is called a leaf, and each side of a leaf is called a page." - Wikipedia, 1st sentences of the entry "Book".
The world is a diverse place. Get used to it.

many of us were taught in school and college that comic books are not considered books. it may be a generational thing, a regional thing... I dunno. I do know that most libraries do not consider comic books as books
