Fans of FLARE and THE LEAGUE OF CHAMPIONS rejoice! Heroic Publishing will soon be offering its own distribution service to direct sale comic book retailers. Heroic Distribution is scheduled to launch on August 1, 2010, providing both online and brick-and-mortar stores with a focused new alternative to Diamond.
Beginning August 1, Heroic Distribution will provide comic book retailers with instant online access to Heroic Publishing's entire available inventory of current and back issues, plus advance ordering capability for upcoming titles at any time four months prior to release.
Although Heroic Distribution's online ordering system will not go live until August 1, the retailer registration system is up and running. And, as an incentive to register, any comic book retailer who registers prior to the August 1 launch date will get a $50 pre-launch account credit redeemable against any order of $150 or more. Also, Heroic Distribution will accept manual orders via contact page or email prior to August 1.
Heroic Distribution is designed to fill the gap that print-on-demand leaves between advance orders and publication. The flexibility of Heroic Distribution's design will offer retailers a four-month window in which to place advance orders for any or all upcoming titles, as well as instant access to Heroic Publishing's entire inventory backlist.
After August 1, once Heroic Distribution is up and running, Heroic also plans to make this new distribution service available on request to other comic book publishers. Policies regarding escrow and fulfillment are being developed, and should be in place prior to that August 1 start date.
