It's interesting how America clearly had a vital comic book culture at one point but now it's just completely dead. I've never known anybody who gave a damn about comic books. I wonder how that happened.

@Ghislaine Might have been astroturfed by shows like Big Bang Theory, etc. because thats where the sellers make the best margins, or it might just be that it's what a non-nerds version of a nerd is into. I've been nerd adjacent (ie. a hardcore gamer, into warhammer, etc.) my whole life and I've never met anyone who buys physical comics.

@GoodBoyUV yeah me too but I mean people from my parents generation definitely were into that stuff. I believe the comic book guy in the Simpsons is a recognizable archetype to them. in the 80s there was v for vendetta and watchmen. nothing of note since then though.

@Ghislaine Either they all got filtered into anime/manga or video games and computers are so much more stimulating that comic books just don't hit anymore, when there was nothing better available it would have made sense.

@Ghislaine I'm not of the opinion that an American farmboy written as Galahad by writers was inherently kiked from day one. Perhaps like most media there was some level of crap to it even from day one but it was a cultural touchstone that disentigrated.

@Ghislaine 2012-2014. Marvel went woke then broke in the most literal sense. DC did a big universe reset and recon like 3 times in a row. The whole time, they continued raising prices until no one could casually just pick them up, only hardcore collectors kept going.All the culture war grifters that came out of Gamergate were making new, legitimate complaints before GG ever got rolling. The industry basically died while the MCU got rolling off the back of the Iron Man movies.

@Ghislaine the simple answer is that comic books have always been a super niche medium. sure people pretend to like it because movies based on the comics are popular, but few people actually read comics. manga and anime are so in sync with one another that the average normie doesn't have to try hard to get into it, whereas comics have always been a collection of different takes from different people.that's why elseworld stories tend to get big, example being Absolute Batman which is selling very well right now.

@Ghislaine @GoodBoyUV This is the answer. The only people who still deeply care about underpants on the outside wearing "superheroes" over the age of 12 is a manchild hooked on nostalgia. Manga doesn't this problem because that industry actually puts out new things besides reheated 60 year old content. If not for the brown nigger cattle flocking to Marvel movies comic book characters would be about as relevant culturally as the Carol Burnett Show.

@Ghislaine @GoodBoyUV DC and Marvel were jewish sweatshops that cranked out children's stories for pennies on the dollar. You can point to other US comics that aren't one of the big two, of various types: Star Wars and other unique properties, etc., but the entire medium in America is weighed down by it being reduced to just a product, the fate of a lot of art in America. I hope that the influence of manga can finally kill it off and let actual art take its place.

@Ghislaine that's because manga and anime are being eaten up by normies. that being said the aforementioned Absolute Batman was the best-seller of 2024 with over 400,000 copies in the span of a few months. that's not much against Jujutsu Kaisen's almost 8 million copies sold that year but that's because third worlders LOVE Jujutsu Kaisen and it's being fueled by being Anime of the Year over on Crunchyroll.

@King_Noticer @Ghislaine @GoodBoyUV Very much so. Newspaper comics artists owned what they drew and it was usually just a one man team and maybe a colorist. Whereas, in the big two you had an assembly line of artists drawing the comics and coloring it for meager pay and no creative input.

@Ghislaine >I wonder how that happenedIt’s Jewish shenanigans but not in the way everyone else in the thread is saying. Doesn’t have anything to do with the writing or the characters or whatever, what happened was the people who owned the comic book industry turned it into the 80’s and 90’s equivalent of NFTs or shitcoins where the focus changed to speculating the future value of issues, the bubble popped (or maybe the rug was pulled idk if any of the owners ever got rich or if it just blew up in their faces, certainly none of the ordinary schmucks in comic book stores never got rich) readership cratered and never recovered, especially among kids who didn’t understand the new speculation culturehonestly it’s a miracle for Hollywood they made spider man and the early hit marvel movies at just the right time for the last generation that read comics as a kid to be nostalgic enough to buy in give superheroes a second life in a different medium.

@Ghislaine Between 1980 and 2010 the average price of comics more than tripled. This priced kids out completely, cutting off the supply of new readers. As the price ratcheted up nostalgic adults became an ever larger share of the audience, and comics pandered to that extremely specialized audience.That is the origin of the 'magic cards' phenomenon mentioned by Buffetfanaccount. The adult fandom bid up the price of back issues and D.C. cashed in on it with the notorious headfake 'Death of Superman' scam where they created a new Superman number one that suckers flocked to buy.Of course the inflection point which diverged the US market from all-ages like that of Japan or France to superhero books and funny animals for kids is much earlier, with the imposition of the Comics Code after a moral panic that pinned the blame for juvenile delinquency (there's a term you don't hear anymore) on comic books.This so narrowed the subject matter that you never got the evolution of a 'US manga' market catering to every genre.

@judgedread @Ghislaine So true. As a 90s teen, I bought less than 10 comic books ever (Turok, mostly and other William Stout-style stuff) though I was forever dropping by the comic store (now long out of business) and just asked the people there "Hey, did Hulk ever fight Dr Doom?" or "What would happen if Superman was in a different solar system fighting?" and they'd tell me all the storylines, lore and backgrounds I ever needed to know.

@CommanderCulture The economics of the business were destroyed by improvements in printing technology. Comic books drifted off the gigantic low cost web printing used to churn out millions of Sunday funnies sections for newspapers. To keep the presses running the rest of the week they printed comic books on the cheap. The biggest stopped doing comics in 1973, and shut down entirely in 2002. Meanwhile the kidult market demanded ever higher quality printing, so tripling or quadrupling the cover price was unavoidable.

@Ghislaine The eighties grimdark revolution - The Dark Knight Returns, Watchmen, Sandman - was largely a reaction to the baleful influence of the Comics Code. Early signs of revolt were the Warren magazines - Creepy, Eerie and Vampirella, and the Marvel large format comics (not subject to the code) Conan and Epic Illustrated.

@Ash_Kvetchum The Comics Code ended so long after I stopped reading comic books that I didn't even hear the news of its demise until years later.Once comic book shops became the primary means of distributing comics it was toothless, as the shops weren't going to refuse to carry a comic just because it lacked approval from a pack of censors.Really, after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles became the hottest new comic property in decades sans Code approval it was dead.
