About Comics is a publisher of comics and comics-related material founded in 1998 by Nat Gertler.[According to Gertler, it is intended to be "[neither] a mainstream comics publisher, nor an alternative comics publisher".The company has published works by such comics writers as Kurt Busiek and Charles M. Schulz, as well as producing books such as Panel One and Panel Two, featuring comic scripts written by a number of top comics writers. Several of About Comics' bestsellers have been works that have been rediscovered and republished, including several books of little-known early comics work by Charles M. Schulz. Part of the motivation for the line is the company founder's own interests and past success with genre specific works. About Comics founded 24 Hour Comics Day, an annual event that now includes comics creators in over twenty countries participating in the creation of over 10,000 comic pages every year.
