Comics is a great medium to get a lot of stories out.
There are great comic books, these great geniuses that manage to tell you a story in one frame, and that became the thing that opened my eyes.
With comics you can put interesting and solid information in a format that's pretty palatable.

I've thought for the last decade or so, the only actual place raw truth was seeping through in newspapers was on the Comics Pages. They were able to pull off intelligent social comment, pure truths not found elsewhere in the news pages, and had the ability to make it all funny, entertaining, and pertinent.
