I love collecting comic books.  My rarest one is from Japan in the 1700's.
I don't know much about comics. What is your favorite?
I like anything by Arthur Adams the most.  He is a great artist.  I collect The Uncanny X-Men that he did the art for.
How long has comics been around?
The first ones were made in Japan in the 18th century and they made their way to Europe in the 1830's, and finally the US in the 1930's.
Are there still new comics being made even today?
Oh yes, they were popularized in the United States around 1933, but they have only grown in popularity since then.  Now they even make them into some of the most popular movies on the planet.
