Book Stores! InterWeb! Are Tights In the Future! pt 13

In closing, comic books have survived every decade and has been accepted through all as a medium, despite difficulties.

Superheroes are at an all time high yet comic book sales are many times near an all time low. With people less likely to frequent a Comic Shop than book stores of the Internet, World Wide Web. What do people want from comics, monthly isues, in their hand or online, or do they want Graphic novels and Trade Paper Backs, with whole stories tucked away and conveniently around when needed. Without the Monthly Comic at comic shops or where ever we will lose what we love about comics, the anticipation for next months issues, the diversity will be gone as well. Have you ever seen TPB's in a book store not too many indie comics, or the sleepers, that we find out about months after happening that rekindle why we got into comics in the first place, TPB's although awesome are not the answer. Internet comics even more readily available, but only as real as that show you watched three years ago on TV. Comics online are set up to become cartoons, good ones, better than the ones on tv, more Adult, and poignant to todays issues, which would be a great new world of Superhero entertainment. But it would not be comics.
