Looks like someone is bringing back comic book vending machines. (they used to have them in the 70s and 80s) Japan has some manga vending machines as well. If this takes off we might get new comic readers and maybe a return of newsstand type books in stores and gas stations.
First the old one then a manga machine then the new one.

Wow! I remember seeing these at an Arlen's store back in the '60's! I never saw them after that, though. I think comic shops started sprouting up about that time, if I'm not mistaken. Hope this doesn't hurt THEM at all.

looks like comics are $1 to $3 in the machines.

The only negative thing I foresee is that the corners of the comic get damaged once it drops to the slot.

I don't think non comic collectors would be worried about that.
