Comics is a visual medium used to express ideas via images, often combined with text or visual information. Comics frequently takes the form of juxtaposed sequences of panels of images. Often textual devices such as speech balloons, captions, and sound effects ("onomatopoeia") indicate dialogue, narration, or other information. Elements such as size and arrangement of panels control narrative pacing. Cartooning and similar forms of illustration are the most common image-making means in comics; fumetti is a form which uses photographic images. Common forms of comics include comic strips, editorial and gag cartoons, and comic books. Since the late 20th century, bound volumes such as graphic novels, comics albums, and tankōbon have become increasingly common, and online webcomics have proliferated.The history of comics has followed divergent paths in different cultures. Some scholars have posited a pre-history as far back as the Lascaux cave paintings. By the mid-20th century, comics flourished particularly in the US, western Europe (particularly France and Belgium), and Japan. European comics traces its history to Rodolphe Töpffer's cartoon strips of the 1830s, and became popular following the 1920s success of strips such as The Adventures of Tintin. American comics emerged as a mass medium in the early 20th century with the advent of newspaper comic strips; magazine-style comic books followed in the 1930s. Japanese comics and cartooning (manga) traces its history to the 13th century. Modern comic strips emerged in Japan in the early 20th-century in imitation of Western strips, and by the 1930s comics magazines and book collections became common. The post-World War II era saw the popularity of cartoonists such as Osamu Tezuka lead to rapid expansion of the popularity of comics in Japan.Comics has had a lowbrow reputation for much of its history, but towards the end of the 20th century began to find greater acceptance with the public and within academia. The English term comics derives from the humorous (or comic) work which predominated in early American newspaper comic strips; usage of the term has become standard also for non-humorous works. It is common in English to refer to the comics of different cultures by the terms used in their original languages, such as manga for Japanese comics, or bandes dessinées for French-language comics. There is no consensus amongst theorists and historians on a definition of comics; some emphasize the combination of images and text, some sequentiality or other image relations, and others historical aspects such as mass reproduction or the use of recurring characters. The increasing cross-pollination of concepts from different comics cultures and eras has further made defining the medium difficult....

Not sure how current this is, but I'm sure it's a guide.

3.1.3 Visual depictions and written descriptions: Variations also apply in respect to
definitions of the content or nature of the material prohibited as child pornography.
O�Donnell and Milner comment that while some jurisdictions �seek to cover every type of
visual and audio representation, others exclude paintings and drawings, and some exclude
texts�.52 For example, both the European Union�s Framework Decision on combating the
sexual exploitation of children and child pornography, which entered into force in January
2004, and the definition arising from the Council of Europe�s Cybercrime Convention 2001 refer only to visual depictions and representations. Written materials were deliberately left
out of the EU definition, as there was no support or agreement for the inclusion of textual
or written material in the definition of child pornography. On the other hand a more
inclusive approach was adopted in article 2(c) of the United Nations Optional Protocol to
the Convention on the Rights of the child on the Sale of Children, child Prostitution and
child Pornography, which came into force on 18 January 2002, which defines child
pornography as
any representation, by whatever means, of a child engaged in real or simulated
explicit sexual activities or any representation of the sexual parts of a child for
primarily sexual purposes.

Under s 91H of the NSW Crimes Act, child pornography is defined to include reference to
depictions or descriptions of a child. Reference to �descriptions� in this context is an
express recognition that child pornography comes not only in the form of images but also
as text. The same applies in all other Australian jurisdictions, although the ACT follows the
UN Optional Protocol in referring to �anything that represents
