Nicole Boose, an associate editor at Marvel who works on the Marvel Illustrated line of literary adaptations, has started a blog over on the Marvel website about accessibility and Marvel:
This topic has always been interesting to me, but the idea to devote a blog to it came to me last week at Comic-Con after going to a panel about comics in libraries. Even though Marvel has a real interest in reaching out to the library audience, the panelists had some valid concerns about Marvel’s accessibility, to young people especially. So while I’m interested in comics for people of every age group, there’ll be an emphasis here on kids and teenagers, and the people who interact with them on a regular basis – parents, teachers, librarians, booksellers, etc.
In her first post, she highlights some recent comics aimed at the younger set and reviews Marvel’s ratings system.
