@flanders had a good post of a video a while ago. Comics are alive and well..just they are in graphic novel form and sold through Scholastic (Bone, Miles Morales etc) The art form is alive and well...the big publishers just don't know how to connect to the kids of today. Sell them GNs now and maybe they will pickup single issue comics when they are older...next to zero chance of kids getting single issues under the lcs model

Taylors newsstand and ice cream shop was the only place in our town with comics (3000ish people) . They only had a double row wall mount display...good times!!

No thanks. Although there are many fond memories of the spinner rack, I DON'T miss the crease on the left spine due to kids thumbing through the books to see the issues behind the front copy.

That single post cements your status as a grumpy old man.

@DrWatson he was probably once a grumpy young man and a grumpy middle aged man. At least he's consistent.

my daughter reads Dogman. A TPB style format that is available at school, book stores, supermarkets, etc. it’s smart. There’s a lot of exposure this way.

My daughter reads wings of fire, has read some manga and Primer…she doesn’t care for novels…only graphic novels.

Shes quite the artist though, at age 12. Used to create her own comic stops/stories.

Does not get it from me (the art talent).
