Corpora of comic strips/books

Dear all,

I'm planning to write my master's thesis on the nature of the dialog data 
from comic strips/books that might be seen somewhere in between spoken and 
written language. Is anyone of you aware of corpora containing comic texts 
(any language, though I'll focus on German)? Ideally the data should 
indicate speaker--utterance(s) relations.

So far, I've seen a description of a comic corpus of bosnian, croatian and
serbian comic series that was tailor made for a special survey on a slavic 
deictic system and marked up accordingly:
http://tusnelda.sfb.uni-tuebingen.de/TUSNELDA/b8/comics/comicheader.html

Any further pointers would be most welcome.

Best regards, Axel Herold.
