We can say that now, actually. Considering that comics already exist in digital or flash format; it's just a matter of time before paper is completely obsolete.

Other who miss the good ol comics from the 60s? When it was ACTION, not talking all the time. Where the drawings was simple and attractive, and not the art that makes it too serious to be fun today?I miss good oldschool comics🙁 Other who does so?
I do.
First a sidenote: though today's comic art sometimes has me thinking, "This guy can't draw!" for the most part, it is stunning. Today's art is as far beyond the art then as the art then was beyond my own Flair and colored-pencil comic drawings.
I also like some of the variations, eg, Marvel's Ultimate series (though not at first; it grew on me). It's cool seeing some stories done with modern sensibilities
Plus, I think DC has done a bang-up job with character development, instead of the outright silliness which characterized so much of their stuff in the 60s.
That said: what I miss about the '60s comics is the simplicity and novelty that today is just plain gone (remember when Galactus was King, and that's it?).
Plus I miss Stan and Jack at the helm.
