Comic books are not just for children, the medium has grown and evolved over the years, and today it caters to a wide range of audiences, from children to adults. They often deal with complex themes and adult topics, and can serve as a valuable tool for exploring difficult issues such as racism, sexism, and social injustice.
One of the most important things to consider when reading a comic book is the story arc, which is a series of connected issues that tell a larger story. Reading a comic book from the beginning of an arc will provide a better understanding of the characters, plot, and setting. Some comics also have a trade paperback, a collection of several issues bound together, which is a great way to get caught up on a series and immerse yourself in the story.
