It’s powerful but a bummer.

I agree that things like Marvels, Watchmen, KG and the like are more for people who read comics and are familiar with superheroes.And the history of such characters. I would suggest one of the Graphic Novels by Will Eisner. They are beautifully written and drawn stories of ordinary people a non-comic reader can relate to. Contract with God, Dropsie Avenue, etc... I disagree thanks to general news media outside comics running articles on Marvels--and the authors were not comic-literate at all beyond knowing who Superman, Batman and Spider-Man were as a brand, but were completely new to the genre. When Marvels was praised for story as well as art by "outsiders" than that's the measure of how accessible it was. Dragging comics into a more realistic presentation was the perfect gateway for the newcomer. |
