"THIS OR THAT?": MANGA VS SUPERHERO COMICS.
By Marka Gbane • 11/26/2025

There's that saying that at one point or the other, in their childhood, everyone came across a comic book.
Anime has its special cluster of comics called Manga.
It has evolved over centuries, from depictions on scrolls as far back as the 12th to 13th century to modern comic books with cartons and multilayered storylines.
They explore many genres, from romance to fantasy, sci-fi and action, cutting across all age categories.
There's been a debate for decades in the world of comics— Manga or Superhero comics?
While other superhero comics have riveting storylines and cool characters, Manga’s dynamic style of delivery and exponentially longer presence gives it the edge.
Its approach to storytelling is unrivalled, its themes resonate with readers on different levels, and its style is unprecedented.
The intricacy of manga plots are fascinating, with detailed connections, one sequence to the next, and an elaborate narrative that will waste no time to lock in the attention of the reader.
Manga's broad appeal across different demographics and cultures is the major reason it's evolved for hundreds of years and stayed on an ascent in popularity the whole time.
So, let me ask you the age-old question;
Manga or superhero comics?
