Brian Hibbs
: I retired on Jan. 1. I operated Big Planet Comics exactly half my life. The last three years were brutal.Shawn Hudachko, owner of Comics Elite and Artists Elite Comics, who publish exclusively through Lunar Comics I would be very interested to know what changed for Image since Eric made the fairly incendiary comments about DC leaving Diamond three years ago? Now I know one answer to that is"everything changed the last three years" but I feel like there's a ton of behind the scenes financial gyrations that are not casting Diamond in a good light. For the record, I want a healthy comics specialty market and I believe a healthy Diamond is part of that.
Here's the thing–I can't go on record with a detailed list of the advantages of one distributor over another or share proprietary information. Suffice to say that Image didn't come to this decision lightly and that we didn't make the move for no reason. We thought it was better for all parties involved, from the reader to the retailer, to our creators. This should benefit everybody in the long run.
As far as Wednesday is concerned–there's no reason customers can't continue to come in on Wednesday, if that's what they'd prefer. I do. If you're selling out of certain titles on Tuesday before some of your customers arrive in your store–that's a sign that you're under-ordering books. There's no reason that you shouldn't have plenty of comics on hand for Wednesday.
I agree that it's probably more extreme a reaction in a lot of cases than warranted in long term impact, but there are definitely legitimate concerns that I think should be addresseAs a struggling retailer, my gratitude for this move is infinite, and will absolutely result directly in my being able to afford a lot more of the Image product that I want to be carrying, and even being able to count on it showing up in consistently great shape for the first time virtually ever.
But the multi delivery release day is an issue that makes us lose money. This actually didn't change one bit of that though. We had two days before this. We have two days now. I actually asked Marvel to change to Tuesday. That would solve it just as much as everyone else moving back to Wednesday. The workflow was way better when we had only one release day.that's a good point.
