And yet my understanding is that digital comics don't sell well.

Shame. They made some great pieces for more affordable price range. I think the Bombshells line is among the best in the industry.

Will see how it goes, but already have concerns won't go well.

I have a feeling AT&T sees licensing as the way to go rather than make the products themselves... It wouldn't surprise me if they let another company take over their comics...

Imagine seeing all the DC characters under the Marvel Comics label. LOL

Will absolutely miss the Bombshells line. It was one of my favorites.

As interesting as that would be, I don't think it will happen. I doubt Disney cares about publishing comics any more than AT&T does. Without the movie rights, publishing DC comics would be a waste of time for them.

I think Disney recognizes the value a little more than AT&T does as that's where the inspiration for a lot of the film plots come from even if they are changed for the medium. However, I do think you're right in that they don't want to publish comics that they don't own the IP to. Doesn't really make much sense for them.

Nah remember marvel has already been letting idw publish some of they’re comics. They don’t care for the comics either. They just want the ip and let’s be honest comics just don’t sell anymore. The younger generation are not buying comics. Only thing that really sells are graphic novels. I think they should just go the route of manga which is selling like crazy. Instead of coming out with monthly issues just do a whole graphic novel like they did with Earth one. I stopped buying single issues along time ago and just go for the graphic novels. The single issue are just too much to keep up with especially with those prices.
