Fortune On Marvel’s Publishing Success

Richard Siklos' profile of recent publishing successes at Marvel Comics can be forgiven its assertion that distribution through comics shops is some sort of outdated, ancient system -- the functioning DM really isn't that old -- for the wisdom of its general point that older systems don't need to be replaced by newer ones just because they're newer. I might also quibble with the construction of the argument that publishing has received short shrift at the company in favor of licensing when licensing revenues are clearly that much bigger than publishing revenues. Mostly, though, a straight-forward article with a lot more displayed than the vast majority of coverage from such sources, and worth a scan if you're interested in general mainstream comics business affairs.
