New challenger

Depuis maintenant trop longtemps, le monopole de la publication de comics se fait entre deux compagnies: Marvel et DC (évidemment). Le deux compagnies étant si monololithiques une autant que l'autre, malgré le fait que récemment Marvel semble faire le double des parts de DC, le vrai combat, celui qui vends les billets dans l'arène, n'est pas entre ces deux-là mais pour la troisième position...
Wildstorm, Image, Dark Horse, Boom, Awesome, Kitchen Sink, Top Shelf, Oni, Dynamite, Avatar...et j'en passe se retrouvent à tout les mois dans une guerre de sang incroyable pour la chance de faire parti du tiers-parti. Mars...un nouveau champion



IDW was the third-biggest comics publisher in March, behind Marvel and DC but ahead of Dark Horse and Image.

Formed ten years ago by ex-Wildstorm talent, the company has a reputation for quality-if-rather-pricey licensed titles and creator-owned series that get picked up for movies quicker than is strictly fashionable. They are also one of the few companies that bigger publishers have seen as a threat, reflected in some of their non-compete contracts.

It's worth considering that as Wildstorm have shrunk in their market share, IDW have grown and overtaken their estranged parent.
