Remember When TV and Movies Advertised In Comics? Well, Flip It
By Dustin Cabeal
Marvel doesn't do ads because they don't want to "ruin the reading experience", at least that's what they say. It's just weird to me that a comic book company is going to spend advertising money for TV and Movies. Movies I can understand, and I guess paired with their one and only TV show, I can understand. But overall, it just classically shows that they don't know what fucking audience or demographic to chase with their books. Be honest, do you buy Marvel? Or do you download Marvel? There always seems to be a large discrepancy between sales and people talking about comics, but whatever. I don't read or download Marvel.
