Last week, I talked about a comic blogger, Bleeding Cool's Rich Johnston's response to Barnes and Noble pulling 100 DC Entertainment graphic novels off the shelves in retaliation to an exclusive deal signed to the Amazon Kindle Fire for these graphic novels. Another comics website, Comic Book Resources, also covered the story, but they actually got some statements from Barnes and Noble representatives. Here's what they had to say.
-If Barnes and Noble does not receive access to books in every format available to customer, then they refuse to sell the physical copies in their stores.
-Barnes and Noble is still selling copies of the books on Barnes and Noble.com and can be specially ordered
-Barnes and Noble claims that this is standard procedure for any publisher that does this, not just DC Entertainment.
