Here's a very interesting article on how comics can help motivate readers. I loved how it debunked so many of the common myths surrounding comics...one being that those who read comics will somehow forego reading anything else. If anything, being a comics reader promotes active reading of more and more things (other comics, of course, but also more and more books). Nice to have this long, footnoted article from the Canadian Council on Learning back that up.
