comicbooks:

Thank you to everyone who loves comic books.
Growing up I was heckled and beaten up because I believed a man could fly.
My own teachers from elementary school up to college told me what I enjoyed was “childish fantasy” at best, “it’s not art, it’s shit” at worst. Even today I can kiss sex goodbye if I bring up Crisis, Mjolnir or the H-E-R-O dial (it happens).
I’ve never seen anything wrong with comic books, only positive. We all have our own reasons… to me it’s a different sense of amazement compared to motion pictures or traditional literature… elements that are highly influential on my life than just mere entertainment.
It’s mighty, spectacular, uncanny, astonishing, incredible… it’s fantastic.

That’s fucking cool.
