Let me catch up on this thread and see what I think...(Caught up Edit<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> The original premise is absolute bull. EVS and his comics-gaters spend a lot of time on wishful thinking. The rumour that Marvel will Buy DC or the other way around has been going on since the 70's, every time either company does anything at all. It's almost certainly never going to happen.Brian Hibbs is a smart, if grumpy, man and he usually knows what he's talking about. He sometimes presents it in an offensive, reactionary way, so he ruffles feathers.As far as my opinion on what the future holds... DC should have waited a few more weeks. Diamond will start rolling out the held books slowly mid-May with things probably not going back to "normal" until July or August. Hopefully things won't go back to normal exactly - the market has been flooded for awhile and could use with less, better books. I hope they come up with a few compelling things to fit in there as an exciting "welcome back". A new Marvel vs DC may be gimmicky, but it might be just the fun, stupid thing we all need after this terror we've all been through.Does anyone have any questions for me? I'd be happy to answer anything you're curious about. I've been a retailer for 27 years, so I've been through ups and downs before. (Nothing quite like this, of course.)</blockquote>
