I'd put comics back in the spinner racks and 7-Elevens and grocery stores and Walmart. That's what's killing us.
Yeah, this was one of the reasons I quit buying comics. I lived in a small town that had no comic shop and I had no car to drive the 30+ miles to the nearest one. At the same time, my address was changing about every six months to a year as I moved into and out of the dorms and various apartments (also, I couldn't keep my same campus PO Box over the summer) so a subscription was out of the question.
The only problem with putting comics in all those outlets is that they're going to have to scale way back on the on-panel violence. They're not going to be able to get those comics in WalMart or the grocery store with brains and guts flying and severed arms and on-panel rape. I just don't see DC going that route in the near future.
