>>11629483>>11629469>Normies aren't going out and buying trades at fucking Barnes and NobleIf they aren't, then who's buying the trades that Barnes and Noble are stocking trades inside their stores for?
It's not the people buying the actual comic books at comic book stores and their numbers supposedly haven't changed much in the past 15 years (whose market obviously suffers from no one dying or giving up on comics, because comic book fans are robots, btw).
Trades have become such an important part sales numbers that the comic makers began writing for trades more than a while ago.
So who's buying trades, if not normies and newbies?
