Zenescope Entertainment will join Diamond Comic Distributors’ Deluxe Tier of publishers in August, alongside current Deluxe Tier publishers ABLAZE Publishing, AfterShock Comics, Frank Miller Presents (FMP), Opus Comics, Massive Publishing, and Titan Comics.

Deluxe Tier publishers get more prominent placement in the Previews catalog and on the PreviewsWorld website (see “Diamond Tags Four Mid-Tier Comic Publishers ‘Deluxe’”).

Deluxe is the tier below Premier Publishers, which once included Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Image Comics, and IDW Publishing but has dwindled as those four moved their direct market distribution to other distributors.  Currently there are only two Premier Publishers, Dynamite Entertainment and BOOM! Studios.
