Comparative adjectives: when we want to compare two things, people, places or the same person, place or thing at two different times. To show  something comparing something else we use comparative form. We use the word “than” after comparative adjectives. 

Superlative adjectives: when we want to talk about three or more things, people or places, we use superlative adjectives. In another word, a superlative adjective is used to notice a subject in a group and explains that the subject is the highest, the smallest, the tallest. “THE” is used with superlative adjectives.
