next you're going to tell me those x-ray spex don't really see through clothes!

Being a fan of comic books is not just about reading the latest adventures of Batman or Spider-Man. Comics, now an art form in its own right, can cover everything from crime noir to global espionage.

OH MY GOD! Look- at this point (and by "at this point" I mean "after,oh, 1972") any editor worth his suspenders should be saying to any "journalist" to whom he assigns a comics-related piece:
"Listen up: we already know that COMICS AREN'T JUST FOR KIDS ANY ANYMORE! WE ALREADY KNOW THAT THEY ARE ABOUT OTHER THINGS BESIDES SUPERHEROES! WE ALREADY KNOW THAT ART SPIEGELMAN DID MAUS! IF YOU PUT ANY WORDS REMOTELY TO THAT EFFECT IN THIS ARTICLE I WILL TIE PIANO WIRE AROUND YOUR BALLS, TIE THE OTHER END TO A DOORKNOB, NAIL YOUR FEET TO THE FLOOR AND SLAM THE GODDAMN DOOR!".
