It has been tried and it has always failed.
Hence why Marvel was in such a mess under Stan Lee at the end.
Lee even sold his name.
He was trying to push “digital online” comic books lately. He is about 10 years behind the curve on that dead horse.
Online comics were a bad investment. Because Stan Lee should know as well as anyone, that the money was to be made selling 4 copies of the same physical comic book to the speculators with inflated cover prices.
There is no resale of a digital online comic. Nothing to hang on the wall or get signed either. Without fandom comics in America would’ve been dead along with Big Little Books.
