There seems to be a lot of speculation about the future of comics and what they will look like. With comics being $4.00 and up these days, how long can prices keep going up before fans just abandon them altogether and publishers go directly to digital or OGN's? And if they do, where would they be sold? Bookstores are also dying. Comic shops should still do fine for the time being. Sites like Amazon seem to be fine but it's kind of hard to decide if you want to buy a book when you can't look over it first. Since both companies are owned by big corporations, the future of comics may not be comics at all but movies and TV shows. Hopefully that particular future is far off.
