-을수록 / -ㄹ수록 means the more... , the more... or as ... more and more.

So 읽을수록 재미있어요 means:

• the more you read it, the more interesting/fun it is
• or it gets more interesting as you read it more

How it is formed:

• verb stem + -을수록 / -ㄹ수록
• 읽다 → stem 읽- → 읽을수록

A few similar examples:

• 보면 볼수록 예뻐요. = The more I look at it, the prettier it seems.
• 생각할수록 이상해요. = The more I think about it, the stranger it is.

Both patterns exist, but they are slightly different in style.

• 읽을수록 재미있어요 is a very common, natural, compact way to say it.
• 읽으면 읽을수록 재미있어요 is also correct and often feels a bit more emphatic: the more and more you read it, the more interesting it gets.

So:

• 읽을수록 = concise and natural
• 읽으면 읽을수록 = also natural, slightly more expanded/emphatic

Learners often first meet the longer pattern, but the shorter -을수록 version is extremely common.

The particle 는 marks 이 만화 as the topic: as for this comic...

So the sentence has the feeling of:

• As for this comic, the more you read it, the more interesting it is.

Why not 이 만화가?

• 는 gives a topic/comment structure and often sounds more natural when making a general statement or evaluation.
• 가 would put more focus on this comic itself as the subject, often in a more contrastive or identifying way.

In this sentence, 는 is very natural because the speaker is commenting on the comic.

That is a very good question, because both forms are possible depending on the structure.

In 이 만화는 읽을수록 재미있어요, 이 만화는 is the topic of the whole sentence:

• As for this comic, the more (you) read (it), the more interesting it is.

The object of 읽다 is understood from context, so Korean often leaves it unstated.

You could also say:

• 이 만화를 읽을수록 재미있어요.

This focuses more directly on reading this comic as the action. It is also natural.

The version with 는 is especially common when the speaker wants to say something about the comic itself as a topic.

The subject is omitted, which is very normal in Korean.

So 읽을수록 재미있어요 can mean:

• the more I read it, the more interesting it is
• the more you read it, the more interesting it is
• the more one reads it, the more interesting it is

The exact meaning depends on context.

In English, we usually have to choose a subject, but Korean often leaves it out when it is obvious or unimportant.

재미있다 can cover several English ideas:

• fun
• interesting
• entertaining

With a comic, 재미있어요 most naturally means something like:

• it’s interesting
• it’s fun
• it’s entertaining

So in this sentence, the nuance is:

• the more you read it, the more engaging/enjoyable it becomes

It does not have to mean only funny. A comic can be 재미있다 because it is exciting, immersive, or enjoyable.

재미있어요 is the polite informal style, also called the 해요 style.

It is used in many everyday situations:

• speaking politely
• writing natural example sentences
• talking to someone you are not very close with
• standard neutral conversation

Other possible styles:

• 재미있다 = dictionary/plain style
• 재미있어 = casual intimate style
• 재미있습니다 = formal polite style

So this sentence is polite and natural for everyday use.

For 만화 in the sense of a comic book, manga, or written comic, 읽다 is the normal verb because you read it.

• 만화를 읽다 = to read a comic

However, if 만화 means an animated cartoon or animation, then 보다 is natural:

• 만화를 보다 = to watch a cartoon

So the verb depends on what kind of 만화 is meant:

• printed/written comic → 읽다
• animated cartoon/show → 보다

In this sentence, because it uses 읽을수록, 만화 clearly means a comic you read.

Yes, it often suggests exactly that kind of progression.

The sentence usually implies:

• at first, it may not seem especially exciting
• but as you keep reading, it becomes more and more interesting

That does not always mean the beginning was bad. It can simply mean the work has depth, and appreciation grows over time.

So the nuance is often:

• it grows on you
• it gets better the more you read

Yes, -을수록 / -ㄹ수록 can be used with adjectives too.

With verbs:

• 읽을수록 재미있어요. = The more you read it, the more interesting it is.
• 공부할수록 어려워요. = The more I study, the harder it gets.

With adjectives:

• 바쁠수록 조심해야 해요. = The busier you are, the more careful you have to be.
• 알면 알수록 좋아요. = The more I know it, the more I like it.

So it is a very flexible grammar pattern for showing proportional change.

Yes, but the difference is small.

• 재미있어요 is the full form
• 재밌어요 is a contracted form used very often in speech and casual writing

Both mean the same thing:

• it’s interesting / fun / entertaining

So you may hear:

• 이 만화는 읽을수록 재미있어요.
• 이 만화는 읽을수록 재밌어요.

Both are natural. The second often sounds a little more conversational.

Yes. That is a very natural English translation.

Other natural translations include:

• The more you read this comic, the more interesting it gets.
• This comic gets more interesting the more you read it.
• As you read this comic more, it becomes more interesting.

All of these capture the grammar and nuance well. The Korean sentence is flexible enough that several English phrasings work.
