Re: reading comics to babies: depending on how comfortable you are with screen time for your child, a lot of the Marvel Unlimited exclusive animal series (It’s Jeff, Alligator Loki, Marvel Mutts) are great for young kids. I read them to my nephew (who admittedly is a little older, but I started about 2 years ago when he was 2). They’re age appropriate, you mainly make up the narration so it’s not overly wordy, they’re enjoyable for adults to read, and they do a good job at incorporating newer and more diverse characters alongside the older ones (since I know a lot of my friends with kids are trying to make sure their kids can empathize and enjoy the narratives of many different people).
