An interesting piece on the digital comics market in the FT — nothing especially radical, but a good summary and one of my favourite pieces of #verbcrime in the quote from Peter Phillips of Marvel:
"'Digital sales are hockey sticking right now and we’ve got a lot ofroom to grow internationally' . . . But the fragmented distribution system for comic books, their inherently tactile appeal and the digital savvy of their target demographic are creating unique management challenges for the big publishers. Although digital editions still make up less than 5 per cent of sales in the $635m US market for comic books, demand is growing fast." www.ft.com/cms/s/0/66a608ee-0483-11e1-b309-00144feabdc0.html
