CultureScape with Peter Pischke

Ep 57五七: How Corona Virus Collapsed the Comic Book Industry & Why it will never recover! Get Woke Go Broke!

In this episode, we go through the collapse of the comic book industry and how a crumbling business industry with an unsustainable business model got pushed into collapse by the C Virus.

If you’re like 1/3 of the population on planet earth, you’re quarantined and bored silly. Ask yourself, what are you consuming for entertainment? You’re likely binge-watching or playing a video game based on Netflix outages and Steam sales. You might be reading a novel. But what I can guarantee you aren’t doing is reading a comic book.

Sounds crazy, right? With Avengers: End Game becoming the biggest movie ever and our cultural obsession with superheroes, you'd think comics sales would be through the roof. Considering everyone is stuck at home, you'd think they’d be interested in reading the newest issue of Captain Marvel. You’d be wrong.

The state of the comics industry is the worst kept secret in comics, and the industry has been in denial for a long time.
