Comics are about the only digital medium that I would let get away with it. In the book publishing world, there are a lot of steps in the promotion and distribution ladder that range from inefficiency to outright grifting, and digital distribution circumvents a lot of them. Comics, though, are priced pretty close to the bone as it is. Nobody picks up an inkpot or opens a comics shop to get rich. If there's fat to be trimmed at DC and Marvel, it's at the very top where all those licensing fees for the movies and toys land, not at the printing presses/servers or on the trucks/tubes that put the comics in front of your eyeballs.
