They are comic books in much the same way as bandes dessineés are comic books: i.e. a widely-read publishing phenomenon which happens to look like comic books do. (A better comparison would be to graphic novels, which were an explicit attempt to import the French/Belgian bande dessinée to English-language media.)
They sell like wildfire in Japan, to pretty much all age ranges.
