Papyri "comic": P. Oxy. XXII in 2331 and P. Koeln IV 179

P.Oxy. XXII 2331 (3rd century AD) and P. Koln IV 179 (2nd century AD) are the only papyri attesting the use in Greco-Latin book products of matching drawings with dialogues held by the characters depicted in the drawings themselves. For this feature, they can be compared to modern comics books. It is the aim of the present article to re-edit these papyri and to discuss the textual and exegetical problems they pose.
