The II International Congress of Comic Interdisciplinary Studies is consolidated with the call for proposals to participate in its second edition, on May, 15th, 16th and 17th 2019. It is the first specific meeting organized in Spanish territory that is consolidated with a second call. In order to increase its character as a reference in comic studies and its stability, the II Congress has been organized in an interuniversity way, creating a network of support, collaboration and exchange between important institutions. It seeks to contribute to support the studies on comics in the university environment. The event will feature innovative communications, as well as relevant international speakers, presentations and cultural activities around the comic.

What is a comic? the simple answer states that a comic is a drawn story that is picturerather than text-oriented and told serially. in other words, a comic is a type of illustration. Realism is not its goal; rather a narrative is developed through reduction according to specific stylistic means. I start this article with a definition of the term “comic”, and move on to highlight the complexity of the comic and to argue that insight into this complexity is necessary for its correct interpretation. Only then can we recognise that the comic is not only entertaining but also, in its own way, a vehicle for content that might be system confirming and propagandistic but can also be system critical. Doing so allows us to see the potential of the comic that is embedded in its particular affinity with nonlinear interactive audiovisual media.
