History

The first English translation of legendary Mexican cartoonist Rius’ Marx para Principiantes (Marx for Beginners) was published in 1976 by Richard Appignanesi and became an instant hit. Its popularity signalled the existence of a readership hungry for information on ‘big topics’ which could be supplied by the revolutionary means of non-fiction comic books. The For Beginners series, now known as Introducing, was born.
