Your right its not a common thing, but the majority of readers are not
confined to the 18 to 20 year old group. Its a fairly broad cross section of
people that you would find in comic book shops or even in places like
Borders which seems to be expanding its range over the last two years
compared to how much shelf space was devoted to it 5 or so years ago. It is
a niche, but then so would reading books about westerns.
