Why are Manga more diverse than western comics. The reasons is:
The whole culture in Japan reads Manga, all ages, all genders. Inside a manga shop in Japan, there are a large diversity of the public, not just a nerdy subculture & young males. Manga in Japan is like; Bullrings in Spain, Football in England, Pizzas in Italy; Manga is a part of their cultural identity.
Manga is everywhere in Japan: It's a diverse business because of it's diverse consumers (diverse enough to try to meet the entire nation's tastes).
There are also diverse western comics too, but you'll have to go out of your own way to find them. Whereas If you lived in Japan, you would see any niche manga being advertised everywhere on street screens, posters, billboards, TV Ads, shop windows, etc.
