DC Comics vs Barnes and Noble

DC Comics are having a rough time with everyone it seems. Their latest battle is with Barnes and Noble. After cutting a deal with Amazon, B&N pulled a 'jealous girl' and snatched the rug from under DC's feet:

Last week when Amazon launched the Kindle Fire, a $199 7-inch Android tablet, it also announced an exclusive partnership with DC Entertainment to sell its digital comic books. DC will start by bringing 100 original graphic novels to the digital screen, and will offer more than 50 new comic books on the same day in digital and print.

But clearly this didn't sit so well with Barnes & Noble, which offers the Nook reader.
According to Bleeding Cool, B&N sent an email to its stores on Thursday, instructing them to remove the hundred-odd graphic novels published by DC Entertainment, although they will still be offered at B&N's online store. 

Confirming the decision, B&N said in a statement, "Barnes & Noble works with thousands of publishers to bring customers the world's largest selection of physical and digital reading content. However, regardless of the publisher, we will not stock physical books in our stores if we are not offered the available digital format. 

DC Comics were not happy about it:

"We are disappointed that Barnes & Noble has made the decision to remove these books off their shelves and make them unavailable to their customers. DC Entertainment will continue to make our content available to our fans and new readers through multiple distribution channels including locally-owned comic book retailers, independent bookstores, other bookstore chains and other widespread means such as online through Amazon and through our apps on iOS and select Android powered devices as well as new and exciting devices going forward."

Poor DC Comics, they are like Rodney Dangerfield, "Can't Get No Respect"
