will this support comic book paperbacks which aren't typically as sturdy as a regular book?

This was supremely flimsy. Honestly, a few thin comic books is about all it could handle without bending. It's useless for any other type of book.

What size are they (please specify height & width in inches) ?

They are in a rental of ours, so I don’t have the exact dimensions, but they are just like the ones in the public library. They are Exactly what I wanted!

gauge / thickness...?

These are a heavy use bookends that will suit any bookcase mission you assign it. I would say library quality. Bought more because they are right down to doing the job they were created to fulfill. You will not go wrong if keeping books in place is your need. For performance, cost, durability, & fits any decor these are a Five Stars product! Hope that helps!
