INQUIRE ABOUT ADVERTISING ON TROUBLE WITH COMICS

Trouble with Comics, News: Marvel Dropping Prices Too

News: Marvel Dropping Prices Too

On her Twitter feed, Heidi MacDonald is reporting that Marvel is also dropping the prices on selected comics from $3.99 to $2.99. At Comics Worth Reading, Johanna Draper Carlson points out that DC is dropping two pages of story, meaning creators will lose income due to the decreased workload.  MacDonald’s Twitter post indicates Marvel plans to feature the “same page count,” when they lower their prices in January, but it’s not clear if that means the same page count as $3.99 Marvels, or the same page count as the new $2.99 DC titles. More on this as it develops.
