DESCRIPTION - Comic book shops came into their own in the 1970s, a new breed of small business that transformed the way comics are marketed and sold. The shops created a space for quirky ideas to gain an audience, and helped some small-press comics turn into media giants. All of this is despite a business model, with non-returnable goods and boom-and-bust cycles, that would challenge even the most skillful entrepreneur. Gearino, a business journalist, leads a tour through this world, going back to the dawn of the modern comic shop, and also looking at the present-day market. inventory #41910 Very Good in Pictorial Hardcover Boards.
