As a Marvel fan I have much regret to say that I’ve never read any actual comics. When newspapers were still relevant, I used to ask my mom for the paper and read the comic strips in the morning. My favorite is Garfield, which I cannot actually recall reading in a newspaper. In my elementary school, they had huge books of collections of Garfield strips, which amused me to no end. They were humorous in my 5^th grade mind, and I liked the action-to-action transitions that may have displayed Garfield hitting John’s dog, Odie or Garfield stuffing his face with lasagna. I have read a few manga, but not as seriously as some people do. I used to read a lot in middle school, but I am keeping up with Attack on Titan now. I’m guessing that the illustrations found in manga would be different because Western comics use more subject-to-subject while manga uses more aspect-to-aspect.
