Jon: I've been reading that book Liz gave me. Then my brain started to hurt.
Garfield: I'll get the antidote!
Jon: Now it's kind of numb.
Garfield: Here! Comics! Read! Read!
Comics / Comic books have been used by teachers recently to encourage kids who hate to read to get started reading. Why not? If Spider-Man is your thing, who’s to say it’s not great literature to a 2nd grader who might never pick up the classics later? Reading is reading.

I haven’t read comic books since they exceeded 25¢. If I looked at prices now I’d probably have a coronary.
