I have a Fantastic Four Whitman Big Little Book. Are these considered "comics"? Have not located where they might be on this site.

I don't think they are since the story is told in text with associated pictures, not true comics with speech / thought bubbles format.

glokar is correct, BLB's don't meet CPG's standards for comic books. There are BLB price guides if value is what you're looking for, and no doubt BLB collector and database sites.

Appreciate the response, and it does make sense in that they are not mostly pictorial in nature.

Thanks for the op-ed. It does make sense in that context.
