The study aims to examine how censorship and comics have been discussed in three debates. The aim is also to identify discourses and the orders and relations of power constructed in the debates, and to examine how librarians should handle debates about censorship and comics. Selected sources are articles from Swedish newspapers and Tabloids about the debates on the Pox-trial, the manga case and the debate about Tintin in Kulturhuset.
