So a Target Store in South New Jersey was selling manga in its book section. Its something you dont see everything and yet not surprised. The funny thing was that there was not one comic book in sight. That pretty much shows you what sells. Manga sells while comic books still declining. If comic books were really selling, why didnt Target store have a few copies of Marvel and DC comic books.
This is proof that we are being lied to. This is not to say that all Target stores will start selling manga but perhaps this is just the beginning of retail stores like Target and Walmart selling manga because they know it makes money. Good Japan.
While many websites refuse to give real numbers and stats on comic book sales, retail stores choose what actually makes money. Watch the video above.
