The Stories Benefit Your Brain
When an individual reads a compelling story in their comic book, their neuron activity will change while they are reading as well as for a few days after the reading has finished. Even when incorporating historical information, comic books are great stories that pull the reader in, thanks to their illustrations.

You Will Learn to Love Reading

You Will Begin to Think Differently
Comic book readers are made to create meaning from the text using “multiple modalities”. This means that all of the components of a comic book are integrated in order to form one solid understanding of the story. The text, space, and images all make up these modalities that the reader will incorporate. Comic books require a more complex neurological process. Critics will say that comic books are as simple as picture books, but they are much more than that.

The Language Used is Quite Advanced
A study done by Cunningham and Stanovich uncovered that the language used in comic book often times exceeds that of oral communication of college graduates. The idea that comic books are only for those who have a lower reading level is completely false, and conversely, comic books can actually help those who do have a lower reading level to practice with material that will actually interest them.

And lastly
Those who read comic books are sometimes scrutinized for being nerds, but the truth is that this is nothing to be ashamed of. Comics encompass both fact and fiction to share stories of extraordinary heroes as well as true events that are easy to digest, even for those who may be struggling to read or comprehend certain types of material.
Happy reading!
