For years comic prices have kept creeping up. Sometimes it would just be certain event comics or variant covers, but then more issues would increase in price before basically all of them. However, Marvel shocked me today saying they are going to work at lowering prices on comics--assumably without cutting pages, one would hope. Marvel has a lot of titles at $4.99 or higher but wants to get more down to $3.99. Perhaps the idea is to increase sales instead of simply raising prices. I'd wonder if the really pricey comics sold poorly and the cheaper ones were doing better? I do not know, but lower prices without losing content is something I can get behind.
