This book came up while I was looking for WordPress books. I couldn't pass up a comic guide. For me, it was a great refresher on HTML and CSS and I think it'd be a really good intro for most people. The mix of comics, text, and exercises allow you to dive in as deep as you need and concepts are explained both in the comics and the followup text.
