It is appropriate time to make a few plans for the future and it’s time to be happy. I’ve read this post and if I could I want to counsel you few attention-grabbing things or suggestions. Maybe you can write next articles referring to this article. I want to learn more things about it!

Heehee. “B&M” stores.

I feel like Marvel wants to destroy their collected edition business anyway, with the way they are pricing them. Charging $5 (or more) per issue is insanity.

Good. Get as many comics, new and old, back out there and into the hands of readers, even if it’s just on a tablet.

About what this means to the direct market…frankly, I really don’t care what the direct market thinks about digital comics. That way of thinking -gearing everything to the LCS- ran the comics industry into the ground. They wanna keep selling paper comics, they can knock themselves out. Digital, however, is the future and they can either learn to specialize in things other than just new comics Wednesdays or they can keep going out of business.

Obviously, not every LCS is that bad. Some owners actually understand how to run a business and don’t treat their store like a weekly live fan forum. They will cope and thrive, just like B&M book stores have managed to survive the advent of the Kindle. Poorly operated stores went away. Borders. Well run B&M stores are still doing ok.

The sooner the comics market fully embraces digital, the faster it will grow.

These have actually been available for awhile now on the Marvel app, and we’re transferable to the comixology app if the user links their comixology and marvel.com accounts. Marvel releases six new collections every Thursday.

The pricing is more consistent than it looks. Multiply # of issues collected X $2, then subtract $1, and you’ve got the price. As you say, not a bad deal compared to the print price of the same material.

Really don’t think the markets for the digital and the actual/real collected editions overlap that much.
