BLUEWATER PRODUCTIONS TO DISTRIBUTE THROUGH COMIC FLEA MARKET

In what it calls "strategic move to better position the company to take advantage of in the quickly expanding digital marketplace and new market economic realities in print," Bluewater Productions has announced a new distribution partnership with Comic Flea Market.

Bluewater's comic books will no longer be distributed by Diamond.

According to Bluewater, Comic Flea Market will print all future Bluewater titles, including those that Diamond canceled due to its benchmark. The individual issues will be available in print as well as digital downloads for Nook, Kindle, iPad and other standard eReaders. Bluewater’s graphic novels will still be distributed by SCB.

"Many people have tried to compete with Diamond and failed; what makes Comic Flea Market unique, is a lot of mainstream book publishers and DVD companies such as Warner Bros. are going print on demand on some of their titles. Comic Flea Market is doing it not only for Bluewater but the entire comic book marketplace," said CEO Nick Sachs from Comic Flea Market. "Not only will we be handling the printing of the titles, we will also handle distribution to comic book stores at the similar discounts. This dynamic will secure the place for printed material in comic book stores."

"They are extremely supportive of independent publishers like Bluewater and the have the vision and the channel to make certain titles get into the hands of comic book readers," said Bluewater president Darren G. Davis.

Bluewater will use CFM's ability to print to order.

"I need to be clear. We are not abandoning comic book shops," Davis said. "In fact, we need you more than ever. In this new paradigm, you order what you need at the similar discounts. When you need more of a certain issue, you simply order again.

"I go to my local comic book store every Wednesday to get my books; this is a ritual I have done for years because I love holding a print book in my hands."

Davis said Bluewater left Diamond to get more exposure. "My experience has shown me that if your name is not DC or Marvel, it is very difficult to get support from Diamond," he said. "As an independent producer, I felt it was time to take our titles to the next level."
