Recently Archie announced that Toys R Us would be carrying Archie titles, something the store has somehow avoided. Now I don’t remember the last time I was in a Toys R Us, so I don’t remember if they had comics or not. That being said, I can’t imagine a toy store not having a comic book rack. It seems like the most logical way to make sales. More kids go to toy stores than comic book stores. Maybe all of these “poor sales” could be turned around by selling in places where kids go. .. Like a toy store. Seems like common sense to me.
So will this help Archie sales? Of course. Every little bit helps. And maybe it will help parents realize that comic books can help a childs reading skills.
