Saturday, May 4th, is Free Comic Book Day. I wonder if I should tell the kids...

Comic Books:� the Good, the Bad, and the #*&%^*@ |Blogs | NCRegister.comFISHER: You used to hear, more often than you do today, that comic books are bad because they make kids stupid and lazy -- that it's a sin and a shame for kids to sit around reading comic books when they could be playing baseball, helping their mothers, or reading actual literature.� Nowadays, you're more likely to hear parents grateful that their kids are reading at all, rather than spending the day hunched in front of the Xbox.� But anyway, for parents who still do worry that kids who read comic books will soon begin to read nothing but comic books:� it's a real concern, if you have that kind of kid.� But other kids are perfectly capable of reading comic books sometimes, and good literature at other times.� It just depends on the kid.
