David Campiti writes on societal media,“In my opinion , a lot of Diamond Comic Distributors ' recent books should be considered STOLEN MERCHANDISE . Whatever the law say about bankruptcy , if they KNEW they were run to file for failure and did not admonish publishers that payments for any books sent could be tie up in failure court , that ’s premeditate theft of product to my mind . And if they announced failure while book were en route to them and they did not RETURN those books to the publisher because they would n’t be paid for , that ’s illusion and theft . Multi - million - one dollar bill corporations get away with stealing from the little guy cable because flush citizenry determine and write the law that protect their fellow wealthy people . That does n’t make it honorable or right . Publishers are owed so many chiliad of dollars , it could cripple or close them down . "

David Campiti , who , of course , was one of those publishing firm , total , " The books they fund sold like dotty , then they shaft the talents and the printers and slip some of the attribute . " As we say , he has seen this all before .
