15
Why does nobody talk about how many comic fans actually buy digital?
Just saw a stat from Comichron that said digital comics made up around 15% of total sales in 2023. Found it buried in their yearly market report. That number seems low to me. I figured with tablets and phones everywhere it would be higher. Anyone else surprised it's not closer to 30%?

15% of total sales" seems about right from what I've seen. I switched to digital a few years back cause my apartment was drowning in longboxes. The convenience is nice but I still miss having a physical issue to flip through on a rainy afternoon.

Man, 15% feels low but I guess most people still like having something to put on a shelf. @river_hart18 I feel you about the space issue, but digital just doesn't hit the same when your tablet dies mid-issue. At least you can't spill coffee on a cloud backup, right?
