The comic book market growth is expected to be positively influenced by rising government initiatives to promote comics to motivate children to take up reading and improve their learning abilities. For instance, Indian news media house NDTV stated that in March 2021, India’s Union Education Minister unveiled 100 comics developed by students and teachers from the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) schools.
COVID-19 Pandemic Improved Online Activity Expanded Comic Book Market Size
The popularity of Artificial Intelligence (AI) among the young customers and companies has grown considerably. It has prompted various comic creators to develop an AI image generator, which functions by responding to text prompts from the user to publish comics. This new art-making AI has opened several avenues for creating previously unimaginable content and accelerating the development of unique comics. This development is anticipated to surge the demand for comics globally in the coming years.
Digital Technologies Widely Used to Boost Consumption of Comic Content
Digital technology is witnessing robust usage in the market as well, thereby playing a vital part in enhancing the consumption of comic content. One of the major reasons for this is the ease of accessibility digital mediums provide to users across the globe. For instance, statistics published by Eudicom reveals that in 2020, Italy introduced 609 digital comics, which was a growth of 63% from 2019. In addition, more children are using smartphones, which is likely to propel the production and sales of digital comics. According to surveyed data released by the National Public Radio in October 2019, more than half of the children in the U.S. were using smartphones. This shows ample potential for digital comic content to expand its presence in the country. These aspects are expected to boost the use of digital technologies to gain an easier access to high-quality comic content.
