Spider-Man the most popular superhero for English studies

A study by Kaplan International Colleges found that Spider-Man's the top comic used for teaching English to foreign students.

I just hope they're using the older stories and not the newer ones for classes, because what's come out since the turn of the century is plain awful, and makes a very poor source for education.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
