Gift giving can always be a tumultuous time in our lives. I know that looking for the perfect gift is a hard hustle but it must be done. If you’re out shopping for the Dork/Nerd in your life and he happens to be consumed (as I am) with the world of comic books then allow me to make your task easier.

Most older comic book fans are not just interested in reading comics; they also want to learn about the medium. Over the years many comic book documentaries have been released covering everything from the heyday to the dark times and all ages in between. I’ve compiled what I feel are the ten best comic book documentaries. Most of these are available either at your local video store, online or through the dark underbelly of bootlegs. Being the time of giving if any of our readers can think of one I forgot please let me know.
