Eisner Library Acquisition News Again?

I'm guessing that Norton made a more official announcement of what they were talking about at the time of Will Eisner's passing, because at the time they were certainly free with news about their acquisition of the cartoonist's library of work from DC Comics. In case you forgot, here's ICv2.com's snappy write-up and separate confirmation this doesn't have an effect on Dark Horse's Eisner books, such as the forthcoming dialogue book pictured, or DC's Spirit Archives series; this news was also out there a few weeks back. Still, this is an important story beyond Eisner's stature because of Norton's relative gravity in publishing and the fact its incremental commitment to comics literature puts it more in line with Pantheon's slow-build approach than with some of the more aggressive graphic novel line plans announced in the last 24 months.
