On Reddit, it's often noted that Western comics are typically published as monthly single issues that eventually get collected into trade paperbacks or graphic novels. Manga is predominantly serialized in weekly or monthly anthologies in Japan, with collected volumes (tankobon) released afterward. The digital distribution and accessibility of manga have also been a frequent topic of discussion.
