It's not even this. It's that, even if it takes 10-20 years, manga will end and will reach some conclusion.
The only conclusion comic readers get is a brand new day, lol.
Even if they never end they could write stories in a way where you don’t need to go back 2 decades to understand a reference in a single pannel. And actually number the tpbs either as volumes in a contained story and not just write Batman in huge font on the side.
Golgo 13 came out in 1968.
It's still going.
The anime wasn't shit, but then that came out in 1983.
I remember that, with the weird chick Golgo bangs then she tries to run him down on a horse on the beach or the business man who was the main antagonist after Golgo killed his son. IIRC there's a phone call the business man takes where the other end of the line flat out states they were the ones who killed JFK because of what the business man told them to do. Had a good twist about the son, though.
That would be the movie.

There was also an OVA in 1998.
