Just yesterday I was looking at a list of American films released in 2023 and there were more than three hundred [1]. Considering that a movie takes a whole team of people to make but a comic only one or two, they're much easier to distribute especially digitally, and comics are popular also in Asia and Europe, I would say there's at least several thousands of them published every year (without even counting that many have monthly issues).

Edit: Another interesting data point, there were more than 14000 games released just on Steam last year [2]. So I think it's not crazy to assume there's also several thousands of comics.
