Abstract
The article focuses on historical bias against comic books, examining the objections raised in the 1950s and how they still persist in today's perception of comics. Topics include the association of comics with juvenile delinquency, distorted views of sex and marriage, racial prejudice, and their supposed detriment to reading. It also calls for a reframing of the narrative around comics, highlighting their educational value, ability to engage readers, and representation of diverse experiences.
