How do we free the American comics industry from the chokehold Marvel and DC have on it?

How do we make Eurocomics more well-known and popular instead?

You need to erase decades of "comics are for kids" mentality and ensure an interests in comics as a medium is fostered.

>How do we make Eurocomics more well-known and popular instead?

This question requires the first answer to be a thing. After that, it's a matter of contacting the Eurocomic publishers (humanoids associated, soleil, etc, etc) and securing translation deals. If the comics are good, people will be interested.

Destroying Diamond's monopoly would probably be a decent first step, with the second being destroying US copyright and then you'd probably have to change the way US companies work as well.

Basically you're fucked and webcomics are almost the only plattform on which US comics can be normal in their range of expression and themes.

The issue here being that reviewers are bought shills and comic shops Diamond franchise stores. And the market doesn't do reprints either.

So good luck finding reviewers talking about them and shops actually having them for sale.

Aren't monopolies illegal in burgerland?

Ironic since most Euro comics /co/ shills like Tintin, duck comics and Asterix, are for kids too.

>>93759471
there are tons if you know where to look. admittedly they aren't nearly as popular as the big 2 but I've spent a good decade of my life reading american(and some euro) comics that aren't DC or marvel,
>>
>>93753429
it really wasn't, only the first 2 albums (and maybe the third, even if Hergé displayed the natives rather stereotypical, he did bring attention to how much they were being fucked over) were like that and it was more due to ignorance than outright intention
later on, when he actually started researching, his stories were not colonial at all.
>>
Coulda swore there was a co recommended infograph of EU comics.

Or maybe they were just french.
>>
I only watched the cartoon. It was great.

How are the comics?
