It’s not just comics. There’s a reason Netflix pays more for the rights to Friends and Seinfeld than they do to produce any original series.
The entertainment industry isn’t just bankrupt morally, they’re also bankrupt creatively. And I think it will be a miracle if it ever recovers. American comics are being beat to death by manga, and I think you’ll see Hollywood cede more and more ground to foreign films and TV series as time goes by. The only hope for Western entertainment is that more and more independent studios like Angel studios rise up and begin to produce entertainment outside the mainstream producers, and that foreign rights holders like Nintendo continue to maintain strict control over their properties when they allow American studios to bring their IPs to the big screen.
