Though, I have a few comics, I can't really justify their prices here in Canada. Granted, the art work is splended at times, but does it really merit 40 lines of text? Its faster to get the jist of how skizzo a character is by reading their wiki, so why bother with the paperback if you're not a collector?
I know for a fact that you cannot get everything out of, say, Watchmen just by reading the Wiki.

It's like reading someone blogging about being at Woodstock in vivid detail.
