Alan Gardner wrote just this past Friday that the Universal Press Syndicate has partnered with the print-on-demand company Lulu.com to launch a storefront in efforts to create a new way to produce and distribute their books. The first comics-to-books from Lulu.com will be Karen Montague-Reyes’ Clear Blue Water, J.C. Duffy’s The Fusco Brothers, and Real Life Adventures by Lance Aldrich and Gary Wise.
I'm not sure this means a whole lot in the grand scheme of comics convergence but I suspect this is a good fit for a syndicate's less popular features to get into print. I won't be surprised if the other syndicates ink similar deals.
