Comics are traditionally viewed as part of popular culture, but their role goes beyond merely following trends. Comics are a unique art form that integrates two key expressions: visual and literary art. Through a combination of images and text, creators have the opportunity to express a wide range of themes, ideas, and messages in a way that often offers a more dynamic and visually appealing presentation compared to traditional literary forms. The fusion of these two elements allows for the creation of more complex narrative and visual depictions, making comics attractive and accessible to various age groups. Given the pervasive exposure to digital content, retaining and motivating young readers to engage with classic literature presents a challenge. However, authors like Dav Pilkey have demonstrated that it is possible to capture the attention of children and adolescents through carefully crafted comics. Pilkey’s comics engage audiences with their intriguing and thoughtfully constructed plots, characters that young readers easily relate to, and sophisticated humor that provides entertainment while conveying deeper messages. The humor in his works not only serves as a means of entertainment but also as a tool for transmitting positive values, through intermedial, intertextual, and intercultural references. Moreover, Pilkey’s comics offer significant methodological potential for education. Teachers can use comics as a didactic tool to introduce literary concepts such as plot, characterization, and style, as well as visual elements, including composition, perspective, and color. The combination of an engaging story, humor, and visual components provides a rich reading experience that can motivate young readers to actively participate in the learning process.
