In a sign that the comic business is returning to normal, Image Comics is ending its line-wide returnability program, Diamond Comic Distributors told its customers Tuesday.  Image is maintaining its No Risk #1 program, which offers returns on selected first issues, affecting four issues solicited in January and seven in February.

Image was in it for the long haul; it first announced that it would make its line returnable last March, in response to the early days of the Covid crisis (see "Image Expands Retailer Support Measures").
