The Comics In Different Cultures

Different cultures make the comics from all over the world have different features. Do you want to know more about how the comics look like in other countries? Let's focus on the features between american comics and the comics from other regions. 
I found all the information at  thisisinfamous.com  and   comicwatcher.wordpress.com, which are sites that focus on comics, and www.randomhistory.com which was created by a team of history enthusiasts dedicated to providing the Web's best selection of history and facts on random topics.
      
Superhero comics
First of all, let's see the most representative American comics-- superhero comics. At its simplest, a comic book is a series of words and pictures that are presented in a sequential manner to form a narrative that may or may not be humorous. Superheroes appeared in the United States in the late 1800s. At that time,those comic book contains everyday language, slang, and idiom, as well as color are all for therapeutic and commercial purpose in American culture. 

Those comics were traditionally counted as a small part of pop culture, but is actually a valuable text that shows how young people and adults identify with cultural and political issues. Therefore, a comic book is much more than just a series of words and pictures with simple cultural importance. Indeed, because of the complex cultural and its commercial role, a definition of “comic book” raises a debate about sequence, narrative, image, text, genre, and art as well as its relation to other genres. At the very least, comic books can be seen as a result of pressures by artists as well as by the historical forces. It is much more than just a part of entertainment for kids, comic books are a serious art form that  creates cultural rules and historical constructs.

Manga
Japanese comics, or manga, are generally published in 15-page chapters that appear in phone-book-sized magazines. Manga is typically printed black-and-white on cheaper paper, almost like newsprint. The most popular serials are then collected in tankobon, which looks like graphic novels. The manga we see translated in the West make up an even smaller fraction of all total manga, though there are a number of great manga that never make it to the US because someone who makes decisions doesn't think there’s a market for that work. But you can get fan-translations of pretty much whatever online, if you look hard enough.Some of these manga can run only few chapters, like The Ghost in the Shell which was collected in a single volume, or can run for years like the Lone Wolf and Cub, which was collected in 28 tankobon. Still, some can run even longer—Dragon Ball takes up 42 books, One Piece clocks in at 70 and counting. 

What’s interesting about manga, though, is that even when they run continuously for 16+ years, as both Naruto and One Piece have been doing, they are both written and drawn by one person. Occasionally there will be works that are written/drawn by a pair instead of an individual, but these are not common. And even in cases where the writer and the artist aren't the same person, it’s still the same team of people who work on the book throughout its run. There are no changing artists or anything like that—admittedly, many Japanese cartoonists do deal with severe health problems due to the stress. Now almost every Japanese cartoonist does have assistants, but it's rare that an assistant does anything more than inking pages. 

European 

The cultural differences make US Audiences mostly think that European comics are complex and very graphic, even though on violence, and usually very long and smart. 

The first thing that Europeans did differently is that their comic albums seem to be for all ages without having to put too much special effects such as superheroes or some other fantasy. 

Secondly, Europeans have no problems getting Marvel and DC titles imported into most modern countries. But unlike us in the US, they can’t go to a comic shop and pick up old issues of Daredevil in the comic bin, the ones from 1978 that they are missing from their collection, and the European publishers usually only publish archs, like the Green Goblin and Gwen’s death, for Spider-man, and then they may stop publishing that hero, or discontinue the whole line altogether.
