Comic books without a doubt have become more mainstream in recent years but recently due to several internal & external issues, their public perception of them had somewhat gone downhill especially the rise of Japanese comics. A lot of people state the rising success of manga over comics is due to the balance of a fun story alongside a story with depth. Certain companies have adapted to these critiques while others have continued the stereotypical comic path. Some may feel comics are fine the way they are, others may feel this change is needed. Do comics need to take themselves less seriously & have some fun or does the audience need to change? Let’s see.

Why We’re Still Hiding Our Power Levels In an era where The Mandalorian is mainstream and anime is the most-streamed genre in the world, the "Blerd" should be at peak confidence. But for many of us, the trauma of the "blerd-calling" era hasn't fully healed. Whether it’s hiding the manga volumes when company comes over or "code-switching" our interests to fit a specific image of Blackness, the fear of social exile is real. Today, we’re peeling back the layers on the internal and external pressures that make us hesitate to go "Full Weeb." Are we afraid of being nerds, or are we afraid of losing our connection to the culture? It’s time to level up.
