Early in 2005, Canadian publisher Dreamwave Productions closed its doors and declared bankruptcy, and a sizeable number of comic creators remain unpaid (see 'Dreamwave Shuts Down').  The sale of Dreamwave's inventory and trademarks is beginning and it represents the only hope that the company's creditors will receive any recompense.

Robert M. Shier, the trustee who is handling the sale of Dreamwave's assets, issued the following statement: 'There will be an ad in the (Toronto) Globe & Mail Newspaper calling for offers to purchase the inventory and trademarks of Dreamwave.  All tender offers have to be submitted to the Trustee by August 2, 2005 according to the terms of the Conditions of Sale Document that I will distribute to all interested parties.'
