Comics Are Just as Good As Manga
Look Beyond Marvel And DC
I did not grow up reading comics or manga, but I have come to love both. Comics was looked at as a niche for hardcore nerds, and manga even more so. If you were a real reader you read novels, not picture books. It took me a while to get away from this mentality. I started reading the manga after an Anime I was watching got canceled. I wanted to know what happens next, so I turned to the manga. That first manga led me down a rabbit hole of reading manga after the manga. Eventually, that lead me to Comics. I started with the injustice series after completing the two video games. This led me down another rabbit hole, and I binged a lot of comics in a short amount of time. Recently there has been a push to make it clear that manga is better than comics. The criticisms have include not focusing on the story, pushing an agenda, and not being able to find complete stories. I think these criticisms couldn’t be further from the truth.
