| Biography of Victor Hugo |
Besides the comic adaptation, Classics Illustrated also included additional material. The first, and most relevant, is a biography of Victor Hugo. It's pretty standard stuff, and recounts a lot of basic information. For what it is, it works. Informative and brief.
After that, there's a one page article titled "The Wanderers," which details the history and plight of gypsies of the years. Again, it is informative, and it seems credible, for the time anyway.

The final piece is another article. This one discusses the history of drama and theater, how it began with religious tradition and gradually evolved into the then new and exciting world of Broadway.
It's all effective. This was meant to educate more than to entertain.
Next: Conclusion
