I think the issue says much about the demographics of those very few individuals who still buy the comic. And/or the writer/artist. Who must be starving with these sales figures.

Based on storylines, I have to assume there are no heterosexuals reading comics any more.

“Could a transgender Incredible Hulk be too far behind? “

More likely a homosexual Hulk, and the heterosexuals won’t like what he does when he gets mad.

Comics...now written and sold to the 2%, plus another 1% who live in their parents’ basement.

If I read the numbers correctly....there’s only 15,000 people in America reading Archie on a monthly basis. Figure $2.75 a copy. So the company brings in $41,250 a month. Take out production and shipping ($30,000), and they sustain the publication off $11,250 a month. You can figure the whole staff to be no more than four individuals max.

All this hype....over a publication that barely reaches 15,000 people a year?

You probably have just as many folks reading Chubby Girls Digest, Hot Wheels Collectors Journal, and monthly publication of Amish Cooking Recipes.
