Aaaaaannnnddddd, we're into the bankruptcy and sale. The decision, in 1986, to try newsstand distribution hurt their cash flow, badly. They had to print higher units and take more returns, increasing their operating costs. They sought to mitigate this by expanding the number of titles, to spread it out across their line. They looked to expand their distribution to bookstore, in 1988, and entered a distribution arrangement with DC, in 1989. The conclusion of Grendel and the Robotech series also took away their best sellers and Mage wasn't ready for Mage II, yet. Grendel Tales was supposed to follow the end of Grendel, with War Child set to start things. With their financial situation, there were delays and things worsened. Their editorial side defected to greener pastures, at DC and Dark Horse and Matt Wagner took on work there, too. Watching the thread with some interest, and I suppose I was never a Comico fan. I did purchase everything that Matt Wagner did, but very little of their other output ever interested me. Elementals was pretty good at the start, but not quite good enough for me to continue reading. |

Someone who knows Comico's history might have to explain what happened next, because the next book I can find is Oblivion #1 (August, 1995). And doesn't this just scream mid-90s?
