So my question is:  What size and shape are European comic books?

Good question.  I thought I had some Asterix books but cant find them.  I
did find some Tintin books and they are 22 by 29.7cm.  A4 paper size is
210 by 297mm so about the same, allowing for the binding on the left.

(Amusing fact.  The height divided by the width of a sheet of A4 is
almost exactly the square root of 2.  Turn a sheet of A4 to landscape and
cut it in half and you have two sheets of A5.  Put two sheets of A4 next
to each other and you get a sheet of A3.)
