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.
 

Usenet seems to have eaten my earlier reply; at least I haven't seen it. Let me try again.
I have "Asterix in Italien," a German hardcover. The covers are 29 x
22 cm. The inside pages are slightly smaller, with a height of about 28.3 cm. It's hard to get the exact width of bound pages.
