Topic description:
Fantastic works are creative pieces that present imagined worlds beyond everyday reality, including science fiction, fantasy, and other speculative fiction across film, series, books, animation, and games. These stories often reflect contemporary fears, hopes, and social questions in different settings, entertaining while prompting reflection.

Category description:
Books and comics are written and illustrated forms of fantastic works, telling stories in sci-fi and fantasy worlds and serving as major carriers of speculative fiction. Written form suits inner thoughts and complex world-building; comics combine text and image rhythm into a dense narrative of their own.
