Most of the comics these days are owned by mega-companies. They could afford to start selling the physical comics for $1.00. When I was very young, being able to buy my own comics with money I'd earned meant a lot to me. It's how I learned to budget and manage money. A kid would need $100.00 a week to buy as many comics as I used to get.
