Comic books aren't only for middle-aged geeks!
You might hear that the comic industry is not what it used to be, given the current financial crisis, the bad economy, it's one of those sector that suffer the most ... that sales are dropping ... that starting as a comic artist is really tough, that since many web-comics are available for free people would be mad to buy comics, you might hear that after the book is made (and that is still a very long and painful process compared to other medias) usually the finished book won't sale much, and you will not be able to make a second season, that the audience isn't the typical teenager, but actually more like people in their forties, ... you may hear a lot of things but if you're a fan of comics, and you had fun reading them ; you will know that comics still have their place between the new iPad, and the 3D theater sensation.
The comic book's battery won't run out of juice, and will never have a broken display! that's a given. And sharing comic book with friend is always a nice thing to do.
But except from the current circle of usual geeks and nerds (awkwardly portrayed by the bunch of fake in the Big Bang theory) -- it lacks a bit of enthusiasm.
And then comes this girl who goes by the name "comicbookgirl19", who will put a smile back on the face of eveeeeeery comic book fans. Just watch her show, you'll be hooked in no time!
