   People will have less money to buy things other than food and necessities. If your comic book is amazing then you'll probably be okay. If it's mediocre, put it off for a few years.

   Pros and Cons

   Disposable income is reduced during hard economic times, which would suggest a problem for new titles and established ones.

   And yet, historically, even in the Great Depression, films and phonograph records had a solid support base.

   If your comic would ever have an audience, I think it should now.

   Good luck.

   due to economic crisis

   producing paper will be collapsed

   thousands of cartoonist gone to be cut down by their jobs

   even though there is a possibility for bankrupt comic book publishers

   most dangerous thing is people don't going to buy & make pay attention on comic books as they have no money
