Disney has officially signaled the death of traditional comic book retail with its massive investment in WEBTOON Entertainment to create a dedicated digital comics platform.
Sounds like they're looking for any new way possible to soak the customer for more subscription fees.
They still haven't learned because they are incapable of learning. Leftists will never learn anything new in the productive sense - only that which supports their degenerate, destructive view.
This is the exact thing they did with Disney+. "We don't want them watching our content on some other service! We must lock them into our service!" Then it bleeds cash and goes bankrupt, the way D+ is doing. We'll see if a comic one is any better, but it's so easy to read comics online already, for free. Why would anyone subscribe?
The announcement itself is just the usual throwing comics at the wall to see what sticks.
But if it was Josh D'Amaro making this announcement? That's kind of interesting. The Chairman of Parks shouldn't have anything to do with comics or webtoons.
Some important duties are finding their way to his plate.

If nobody wants to read anything Disney makes, why invest in webtoons?
webtoons is an amateur cartoon service.
Disney can't leave well enough alone. Get ready to watch webtoons implode.

Wait, wait, wait, a Disney Sluggy Freelance.
Bunbun starts taking down Disney characters. It would be great
