But why? And don't say it's because people don't like to read because popular YA books sell a lot better than comics too.

Comics always were and always will be a niche market.

Not really. Remember when a comic could sell millions of units in the 90s? Super hero comics, over the last 10 years, sell significantly less now than they ever have in the history of the medium.

Look at stuff like IDW or Image Comics. They mostly have books with very little or no continuity but have alot less readers than Marvel or DC. So just because they have a rich history of events and characters doesnt mean people are "afraid" of getting into comics. People that really wanna read comics do regardless of 60+ years of continuity.

No, that just means that the niche market of people who already read comics prefer to read comics with complex continuities.

Don't you think that part of the reason IDW and Image sell less comics than DC or Marvel because they don't have the financial backing of 2 of the wealthiest media corporations in the world?
