My understanding is basically that FLOPPIES continue to lose popularity, but that sales overall continue to grow - mainly via an increase in the popularity of collections and graphic novels (and, at least during Covid, digital comics).



Comic sales through the direct market continue to dwindle, but most shops started diversifying many years ago, which seems likely to occur more and more until everyone that survives is basically a general-purpose "hobbyist" shop, with some graphic novels, alongside CCGs, wargaming, toys, etc.
