For consumers not accustomed to reading, comic books are an accessible entry point for developing the habit. Customers have the option of beginning with standalone graphic novels, standalone narrative arcs, or issues of an ongoing series. This ease of use encourages customers to explore the medium and immerse themselves in the rich heritage of comic book universes. With the appearance of independent and specialized titles, the prevalence of comic books has increased.
Due to their historical significance, artistic value, and sentimental allure, comic books have long been considered collectibles. Some comic books can be quite costly for collectors, especially those with compelling stories, the first appearances of iconic heroes, or limited-edition variant covers. These issues are valuable assets for collectors in the market because of their popularity and rarity, which can command high market growth.

The rise of streaming services, such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Disney+, has created additional opportunities for adaptations.
