Western comics don't have a story to tell.
That's the problem in a nutshell.
They have a brand to sell, not a story to tell.
It like, they had a few, but then they got reprinted and retreaded over and over again in other media.
They had once. But the thing with stories is that they have an ending. Succesful stories that turn into franchises are not allowed to end.
They might have stories, but there's no real end to them, unlike what you might have with serialized story compendiums of the past.
