Comics are too expensive for the amount of entertainment comics currently give, on a single-issue basis.
That is a really great point, a big reason I stopped purchasing physical comics on the regular is that it was too much for my finances; when comics were just a few bucks and something you could get next to your grocery bill it was no problem, but now If i try to get a whole miniseries I may pay as much as I would for a new game.
@@HappyWarrior Exactly. And some games can offer dozens, even hundreds of hours of entertainment, depending on what you play. That's an cost-to-entertainment ratio that most other mediums cannot come close to matching.
always a joy to see mister Dixon on it's great listening to him talk he always gives so much wisdom and insight.
❤🔥
Fantastic interview.
Interesting to hear Chuck's disdain for the industry but it's really hard to blame him for it.
You are conflating his disdain for those running the industry and ruining it for a disdain for the industry itself.
Hi from Vito's stream!

I’ve noticed that DC especially, is hiring artists who draw more manga inspired, as if to lure manga readers in - & it’s still not working.
Yeah, DC is trying to take stories they've already published & retrofit into the manga format. It's a cute idea, but it doesn't help if they don't understand what makes manga so appealing in the first place.
I'd read a manga about fixing fridges. Handyman Saitou already got me into learning general contract work lol
Awesome

As Nerdrotic has pointed out, it was the Comic Book stores themselves who put the stop to that seeing them as competition.
We have a dictation here in Brazil for guys like Chuck Dixon: masters make it rain... those who don't know, make predictions. Period!
Comics died when the audience didn't progress.
Hi Neon, thank you for watching the episode.
Here's my POV on the topic: It's hard to help an audience grow when the material being given to them doesn't let them. We don't cover this much in this interview, but I recommend you watch our previous where he talks about developing Spoiler and writing stories about teen pregnancy, suicide, and other heavy themes. Whenever he covered those topics he came to them as friends to the audience, that they would go through some tough subjects from multiple conflicting points of view, but that those were moral stories not aimed to attack the audience but show different ways to look at a hard issue.
What changed isn't having moral lessons, those have always existed in comics since the very beginning, but the readership became an enemy to the writers of the comics. Being a comics reader my whole life, I've met many nerds and they are some of the most intellectually curious people I've ever met. They are very willing to hear different ways of looking at the world but they don't want to be the villain of the week. No one does.

That right there is the problem. People are afraid of being real and adapting. Life and maturity are all about progression.
