Pretty interesting video, would have never guessed that back in the day newspaper strips were viewed as more prestigious than comic books. Also a little surprised how apparently there's this giant pushback by the big publishers against making their product easy to find and read, though now that I think back on it it makes sense. Completely anecdotal, but that segment at the end of the video about Marvel and DC is 100% correct for me. As a kid, some relatives at one point got me some Batman comics, and when I couldn't easily find the next ones in the series, I gave up. That complete disregard of comics as not for me persisted all the way into adulthood. The thing that got me back into "comics" as a medium at all was manga, and I still have almost 0 interest in superhero slop beyond stuff like Watchmen.
