Stop the presses: Comics are more expensive than they were when we were kids. Oh! And they're not just for kids anymore. So says the Daily Nonpareil of Council Bluffs, Iowa:

"'Kids don't buy comics these days; it's mostly adults. Kids want the video games,' said Chris Kline, owner of Comic City, 1720 N. 16th St. 'Most of my customers are about 26 on the average. A lot of them are single, too. Once you have a wife and kid, you can't afford this hobby, and most wives wouldn't allow it.'"
