Rapper and actor Method Man talked about how reading comic books informed and shaped his moral code.

The rapper and actor made the admission during an interview on the podcast Jemele Hill is Unbothered. He told Hill, "The stories taught me how to read better, taught me words that I wouldn't have known if I hadn't picked up the books, gave me a moral code that I didn't know I had. A lot of us that read the books have an inner moral code that we hadn't even noticed."
