I used to read the comics every Sunday in the newspaper so I guess that counts. Everyone can use some cheering up, right?
National Comic Book Day on September 25 honors the art, artists, and stories of comic books. Fans, collectors, readers, and artists come together to celebrate the day with events across the country.

First popularized in the United States, comic books are also called comic magazines. Generally, comic books produce drawn sequential and opposing panels representing individual scenes. Each scene often includes descriptive prose and written narratives. When placed together, the panels form a complete story or a portion of a serial.
The earliest comic strips (which later gave birth to comic books) displayed dialogue in bubbles or balloons above characters' heads. As an art form, the designs can be quite intricate. For example, text, dialogue, personalities, color, and imagery enhance part of a storyline. Over time, these storylines also distinguished eras, artists, genres, and themes.
People who collect comic books are known as pannapictagraphist.
The term “comic book” comes from the first book sold as a book reprinted of humorous comic strips. Despite their name, comic books are not all humorous in tone and feature stories in all genres.
Some of my favorite were Archie, Superman, The Fantastic Four, Little Lulu, Blondie and many others.
