>Comichron and ICv2 have teamed up for a joint report on the financial state of the comic book industry in 2016 and they found that the sales are actually up. Total sales clock in at a jaw-dropping $1.085 billion, up 6% from 2015. But it wasn't digital sales or cash transactions for single issue comics driving the growth. It seems the additional $55 million in sales can all be attributed to graphic novel purchases from book stores.
>Titles spearheading the impressive growth include several Star Wars tpb collections from Marvel, several volume collections from Image such as Saga, Wicked & Divine and of course The Walking Dead.
What do you make of that, /co/?

That's good, hopefully it means more money invested into the comics to make them better, but that's likely not going to happen
