An album is generally larger than a TPB, which is the size of a traditional comic book. As I've said, I prefer the album size *because* it's larger, but most people prefer the easier-to-store TPB format.<BR>
<BR>
If you're ever in a bookstore, they should have a few "mainstream" TPBs for you to take a look at. (I doubt if they'll have any albums.)<BR>

I hope that clears things up a bit...<BR>

Thanks for reading this nonsense,<BR>
