“Even Professors Read Them.” News Chronicle (Thousand Oaks, Calif.), January 5, 1966
This article notes the new sophistication of comic books using the complex character of Spider-Man as an example. Stan Lee explains that nearly all of Spider-Man's fan mail comes from college students, who try to figure out the character's psyche. A college student quoted in the story states that Marvel Comics has created "the first breed of supercharacters that college students--and working adults for that matter--can really identify with."
