With all the conventions, movies, radio spots and television shows, it is easy to see that interest in fantasy and science fiction remain popular. Still, many early writers in these genres remain unknown. One of the best and earliest of these writers is A. D. Condo who created what is believed to be the earliest publication in the genre, Mr. Skygack from Mars. A single panel black and white strip about a visitor to earth which became popular in newspapers in the U. S. During the 1930s and 1940s.

Buck Rogers was birthed in the 1960s along with Brick Bradford, Flash Gordon and Dan Dare. Superman followed a short time later. Science fiction comic book authors are responsible for the birthing and growth of this great genre, especially A. D. Condo. Without Mr. Skygack from Mars, the entire genre may have never been realized.

In the 1960s, Frederick Wertham decided that books in this genre and others, may have a negative effect on children and young adults. He published a book called "Seduction of the Innocent" to relay this point to parents. Many of which then disallowed continued reading of fantasy and science fiction oriented material.

The industry began to return to themes directed at teens and adults in the late 1960s. It is during this time that the wave of underground books and strips related to free love and hippies were first released. In 1991, hippie comics resurfaced with a series dedicated to Grateful Dead fans called Grateful Dead Comix. These and other publications make it clear that both science fiction and other themes are still popular.

Japanese comics featuring fantasy, science fiction and other themes were first published in the 1950s. The earliest of which were books known as manga. One of the most popular in this series was Astro Boy created by Osamu Tezuka. Many others have since released additional manga with a variety of different characters and themes. Some of which can be found in a number of games, films and television shows in Japan, the United States and other countries.

Dan Dare was the earliest character developed by authors in the UK. It was not until the mid to late 1960s that the genre became popular after the release of the The Trojan Empire. A series that included comics published in Look and Learn, a book devoted to teaching art as well as entertaining children.

The internet now allows a venue for new and well seasoned writers to explore fantasy and science fiction. One of the most popular of the earliest web comics is that of Polymer City Chronicles. Both this and Starship Crisis were quite popular shortly after the activation of the world wide web. Posting historic editions of older comic strips, science fiction and others later became quite popular among both new and emerging graphic artists.

People today can read comic books online, in the traditional form or view many which have been turned into movies or television shows. The latter is especially true when it comes to Japanese comics in which many are now part of a new genre known as anime. Anime includes a vast number of components beyond comics, some of these are animation, including cartoon, clay and live action, games like Pokemon, role playing and a growing video collection.
