false. part of the reason comics are shit now, and have been for a long time, especially capeshit, is because things stay the same rather than develop. however marketing to a different audience is stupid because a) that audience doesn't exist, b) that audience is literally incompatible with the spirit of the medium because they didn't grow up with it and c) different presentation of the same thing isn't development, it's stagnation
the new star wars movie trilogy was shit specifically because new people who did not appreciate star wars or knew what it's philosophical underpinnings had control of something as nothing more than a cash grab to slop to a younger generation
