It was a nice statistic that came out of ComicsPRO. That the number of comic book retailers ordering through the direct market from Diamond Comic Distributors was up in 2015 on 2014, by 3.8%.
That’s probably around 80-100 new comic book stores across the USA.
And with Walmart launching their plans, and also going through Diamond, look for that number to get a further boost through 2016…
Here are a few of the most recent entries to the market.
Heroics in Wolverhampton, England.
Comic Signal in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Black Medicine Comics in Des Moines, Iowa 
Mass Madia Comics in Zanesville, Ohio.
And Fly By Knight in Stellarton, Nova Scotia.
Congratulation s – and good luck all. You are clearly part of a trend.
