    The retailers killed the compromise? Did Marvel have an official stance on it? They seemed pretty silent.

    There was no official announcement, but the guy behind ComicHub did say that publishers were on board with the idea at first until they weren't anymore. That was after news were out and, of course, retailer response was mostly negative. It's not a reach to assume there was a correlation there.

    Marvel is very blatantly straddling the fence to see what the competition does here. It's not a coincidence that they remained completely silent (save for that supposed "brilliant plan" they were cooking up that we still have yet to see) until DC officially put all their books on freeze.

    Like I said some days ago, this is basically just a standoff now until someone pulls the trigger and decides to release stuff digitally just to get some sort of revenue stream going again. Nobody wants to take the plunge and be the first one because retailers screamed at DC when they were going to go through with it.

    It'll be interesting to see if it's a non-Marvel or DC company that cracks first. Marvel and DC at least have the benefit of being small subsidiaries of much larger mega corporations, while some of the indies don't have that kind of safety net.

    Not from Marvel anyway. Does anyone like 2000AD? That's still out.
