The New York Times reports on the state of comics on the web. It seems that comics are confronting the same issues as other publishers:
“We realize what a great promotional tool the Internet is,” [Marvel Publisher Dan Buckley] said. But like other print media, “we’re all waiting” as digital technologies create challenges and opportunities… Mr. Buckley said he was not yet convinced that reading a comic book online delivered the “whole experience” of reading a printed comic book.”
But of course, the more things change, the more they stay the same:
“Many see no alternative for the industry but to adapt to digital technology.”
