Theres more to American comics than just marvel/dc if what they do bothers you then you can read some indie comics from image Also price wise are we comparing the manga volumes to single issues? because that would be silly
Oh I do. That doesn't stop me from being annoyed at the monopoly they have. Superhero comics are the majority of the market rather than just a genre in the medium. Luckily Diamond isn't as strong as they used to be.

Price wise, I'm more comparing it to other reading options than other comics specifically. But 5-15 for a manga volume compared to 2-5 per issue or 15-35 per collected volume, yes manga is cheaper. They use cheaper paper and dont bother with color. Its hard for an american comic to win a price war against them. But also paperback books. What the hell happened there? They used to be cheap and now everything is like $20 minimum. Magazines are expensive now as well.
