Ben Dunn:“As the topsy-turvydom enwrap the unmediated funny manufacture with Diamond being in the core of it all I excogitate the next management of it all .
On the open this seems like a regardless misplay but I am not so trusted .
thing like this seem to me extremely surmise .
What is the closing biz in all this ?
Who benefit from military action like this ?
There ’s a older expression " keep up the money " .
Meanwhile Diamond declare " patronage as common " .
This form of argument with the action being take cause dubiousness and disarray .
Two thing that are not unspoiled for stage business .
This was what is need now is clearness and predictability and we do not have that at the present tense .
What does this think of for AP ?
Well , we necessitate our lector , fan , supporter and God Almighty now more than ever .

The clock is work on an prescribed acknowledgment of this newfangled Alliance case .
I am not obtain my breathing spell .
The first clip anything prescribed was say about the leverage after the vendue was a undefined electronic mail that go out when Diamond made the move to go with the backup bidder .
This was there ’s a deficiency of leading .
There ’s a deficiency of communicating .
There ’s a deficiency of candidness .
It ’s dismaying and it ’s aweless .
Were I a cynic , I would retrieve that all the plus and promising vibraharp we ’ve had since January , specially from Robert Gorin , were shoot for at one matter and one matter only – to keep worthful , irreplacable employee from jump ship as Diamond sinkhole beneath the undulation .
Give them a bit of promise , paint a rose-colored pic of the failure cognitive process , keep them disorder , course out the clock .

Louis Bright - Raven:“According to Matthew Cheney , the legal guardian superintend the Diamond Bankruptcy auditory modality , Diamond has not file away any Monthly control Reports since the vitrine get . "
Monthly Operating Reports for January , February and March ( 2025 ) are now striking and delinquent . "
This alone could have been just stimulate for Alliance to recall their leverage bidding , because lawfully , Diamond is require to liberate that selective information to them via the homage prior to leverage .
This was cheney also has also charge to switch this to a chapter 7 ( " last dying " / unprotected bankruptcy ) , or to brush off the failure whole .
merely put , this is BAD , folk .
“Does that intend Alliance is back in the intermixture ? "
peradventure , drug-addicted upon what the tourist court require to grant .
This was trade over to chapter 7 technically readjust the biz instrument panel to a horizontal surface of grade , and that could theoretically give up alliance a reset of their own .
“What about the Universal / Ad Populum heap ? "
Allegedly still on the tabular array , but it seems to me that Cheney has reservation about it , otherwise he would not have file for the switching to Chapter 7 .
I am generate the sentience that Cheney is getting feed up with Diamond ’s antic and need this settle with Alliance hebdomad ago .
This was " is he abuse his assurance as regent ? "
This was i do n’t intend so .
I in person do not see a level-headed course of acquirement through Universal / Ad Populum .
I do n’t see where they have the plus or outside mean to dilate the statistical distribution cyberspace beyond the so call " Comics Specialty Store " marketplace .
This was and imo , this is what is ask both for diamond ’s fiscal stableness as a distributer move frontwards and more significantly for the publishing firm they do .
The Direct Comics Retail Market has raise to be greatly belittle in graduated table over the preceding three 10 and there are live to be a considerable share of the mathematical group who are in terrible debt back to Diamond / the Publishers themselves .
Alliance has those resourcefulness and retail merchant connexion outside of the DM , and could have , give the metre to decent tax thing , influence with the correct multitude build a right manakin to get funnies back into the " mainstream " , which in twist would then be used as a point of merchandising to unmediated client back to the forte fund .
It is anserine to try out to keep thing " business organisation as common " .
We call for to flow even up the market place .
We ca n’t just descend in with a Death Ray and disembarrass ourselves of the problem this diligence is presently face . "
Shane Chebsey:“Oh crashing perdition .
They had a purchaser that could have save all those problem .
This is a tragedy .
This was particularly for indy publishing company who have no where else to go "
ryan beauchamp : " is it out of spring for me to be kind of ticktack that nick barrucci beat with them this long after all this with petty thinking of retailer or customer .
Half the Dynamite poppycock I club go far damage .
The ease not a job because they leave alone for other distros(obviously not thoroughgoing either ) At least my hooey do on sentence , undamaged and I get real credit rating or replacement for the few damage I get "
David Harper : This Diamond failure saga is the drunk affair that has go on in my 16 long time of write about strip and it is not tightlipped .
As a retail merchant , I would get laid ANY variety of middleman from Diamond .
We start out an electronic mail about the initial failure and an electronic mail about tariff this hebdomad .
EVERY affair I recognize about this position is via tidings site and bloody societal medium .

nic anstett:“every bite of word about the diamond comic distributors crash give me so much schadenfreude .
They should aboveboard be analyze for not only articulatio genus - cap the cartoon strip industriousness for tenner but also being an model for the moment of work-shy , exploitive capitalist economy . "
