Mirck: Dutch Distributor Bankrupt
It's been a good year for comics news gatherers on-line, with the debut of Manga News Service and now word that Amsterdam-based journalist Jeroen Mirck is keeping an English-language blog.
His top story at the moment is the bankruptcy of prominent Dutch distributor Het Raadsel. Mirck links to his own news piece on the matter, where he indicates that the reasons the distributor collapsed may include a too-lenient policy for client businesses and a change in the overall economic climate -- a factor too often overlooked in analyses of the American comics business.
