Conclusion
Comic books were believed by some to cause children to turn to crime and to degeneracy, and believed they had to be stopped. Some people, including psychiatrist Fredrick Wretham linked comics with delinquency. Others believed that comics would cause kids to question authority as officers of law were almost never evil to catch the bad guys in comics. The writers of Comics Code Authority believed that comics must measure up their responsibilities. They believed that the comic industry must change some things about themselves in order to become more "kid friendly." However, most people today believe that comic books can help children read such as most educational journalists.. Comic books help in keeping children's attention longer, as children often enjoy their bright and different colors. Comics are believed to assist in vocabulary, as some words a child wouldn't know are given context to through the illustrations. People believe that the problem isn't to get kids to read the right material but just to get them to read. Comics can teach kids important reading skills like narrative structure and character development. They overall help children read, open up their imagination and find some creativity. After World War II, the culture of postwar jubilance made superheros seem unimportant to some people but still important to others. We believe that comic books assist in helping kids read in a world overrun with other forms of entertainment. Comic books are able to attract kids in a way no other form of literature has yet been able to do yet, due to the bright colors. Also, they help teach kids important learning skills. Today, comic books are important tools in teaching kids about good morals and reading.
