Clover Press has awarded exclusive distribution rights for its publications to Diamond Comic Distributors and sister company Diamond Book Distributors for the comic and book channels, respectively. Clover Press is the new company co-founded by IDW founders Ted Adams and Robbie Robbins after their departure from IDW (see “IDW Founders To Run New Book Publisher”).
The first publication from Clover Press, a new edition of The Royal Book of Oz (a post-Baum Oz book written by Ruth Plumly Thompson) with new illustrations by Sara Richard and an afterword by Eric Shanower, is currently seeking funding on Kickstarter. Trade release is planned for April 2020.
