Market Segmentation

This market report extensively covers market segmentation by type (non-digital and digital), product type (hard copy, e-book, and audiobooks), and geography (APAC, North America, Europe, South America, and the Middle East and Africa). It also includes an in-depth analysis of drivers, trends, and challenges. Furthermore, the report includes historic market data from 2017 to 2021.

Market Dynamics and Customer Landscape

The market experiences robust growth due to the enduring popularity of comic books across various genres such as superhero tales, fantasy stories, and contemporary fiction, appealing to diverse audiences including kids and adults. Key players like Marvel and Manga drive innovation with continuing developments, enhancing the reading experience. However, challenges like truck driver shortages, lack of freight capacity, and congested ports impact distribution. Events like the San Diego Convention Center and Comiket foster community engagement, while independent bookstores remain pivotal in the comic book market ecosystem. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.

Key Market Driver

The success of TV shows and movies based on comic books is notable driving the market growth. The popularity of movies and TV shows that depict the story of comic books is accelerating the growth of the global market.  When television and movies gain wider audiences, they increase interest in existing comic books that have been adapted as such, increasing sales and revenue for publishers and retailers.
 
Moreover, the success of the adaptations will also encourage publishers to produce more content in both print and electronic formats so that it is attractive to a wider audience. Furthermore, the market for comics worldwide is estimated to grow further in the course of the forecast period as more adaptations are reviewed with positive reviews and enjoyed by audiences.

Significant Market Trends

The growing popularity of Indie comics is a primary trend in the market. The rise of the Indie comic in the global comic book industry has been phenomenal in recent years, and it is expected to continue driving the growth of the global market during the forecast period.  Indie comics are a type of comic that's independent and self-published or is being distributed by tiny, independent publishers focused on specific stories and contents, often dealing with societal norms but also representing a broad range of opinions and communities. One of the primary drivers of the Indie comic is the democratization of publishing, enabled by digital platforms. 

Moreover, Indie comics are also gaining popularity because of their innovative storytelling and exploring new art styles that resonate with their audiences. This has resulted in an increase in readership from casual readers to comic book enthusiasts. The rise of the Indie comic will have a positive impact on the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

Major Market Challenge

The integration issues associated with digital comic books are a major challenge in the market. The effective utilization of a digital comic book platform requires its integration with various channels. This can incur high implementation costs. Comic book companies need to invest a substantial amount of time and money in the software coding required for the effective integration of digital comic books. Moreover, customers should have the possibility to be provided with customer support by comic book merchants for the efficient operation of these Integrated Platforms. These factors are making it difficult for publishers to make comic books available in digital form.

In addition, the comic book companies offering mobile applications for comic books need to invest heavily in the development of applications. The integration issues associated with such applications can lead to the crashing of pages and errors while loading, which can ruin the brand reputation of comic book publishers. Also, the providers of operating systems constantly update their offerings, due to which comic book applications need to upgrade their applications continuously to avoid integration issues. Hence, such integration issues are anticipated to limit the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

Key players like Marvel and Manga contribute significantly, showcasing a wide range of content. The market is influenced by factors such as the popularity of comic books among readers, the continuing developments in storytelling and art, and challenges like truck driver shortages, warehouse labor shortages, and congested ports affecting distribution. Additionally, events like the San Diego Convention Center and Comiket play a crucial role in connecting creators with communities of readers and collectors.

The non-digital segment showed a gradual increase in the market share of USD 6.26 billion in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021.  Demand for comics that do not exist digitally has also increased globally on the back of increasing interest in anime and related manga. Even though the print books segment may no longer be the dominant form of book consumption, it still holds a significant market share in the global market. With the increasing demand for digital books, the non-digital segment is expected to lose its market share during the forecast period.
