To some people,the idea of reading comic books seems childish.To others,comics are nothing more than (41)J of their happy childhoods.But for people who love comic books,they can be a(n) (42)G escape from the realities of modern life.Comics are able to (43)K readers to brightly-colored,imaginary worlds where superheroes fight with super-monsters,where good can succeed over bad,and where heroes can save thousands of innocent people from the"bad guys."Comics are published globally,but Japanese and American versions (44)F the market despite the fact-or perhaps because-they differ in some ways.
