"Story pages" are two-page spreads (usually in color, but not always) which tell the events of an adventure through montage artwork with narration and background info spattered all over the place. They should not be confused with manga.
Story pages are commonly used in Japanese comic magazines such as TV Magazine and Comic Bom Bom, but can also be found in toy catalogs from time to time.
The Transformers, in Japan, have had many of their most important battles told exclusively through story pages, particularly toward the end of Generation 1 when the line's popularity was declining and they no longer warranted the page space for manga.
With few exceptions (the occasional OVA or manga special), Zone, The Battlestars (the Return of Convoy fiction), and Operation Combination were told almost exclusively through story pages.
