Creators Scores Five-Paper Exclusive

This story about Creators Syndicate scoring a five-paper exclusive comics-supplying deal with Canada's Sun papers strikes me as a bigger deal on a second glance. First, this is a model that while I'm not sure is new, is not something I could tell you about happening in any other paper or group of papers. Second, it seems like a strongly appealing model given the potential savings in production and what I assume is something worked out between syndicate and newspaper. Third, although I'm sure Creators would disagree, theirs is not the strongest overall syndicated line-up. It's like if your cable provider decided that one network is going to supply all the programming, and it ended up being one of the smaller groups of stations that got the deal. This makes it an even more impressive deal.
