Well here's what I was able to dig up.

This from Comic Book resorces site. < a rel=nofollow target=_blank href= "http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=litg&article=1464"> Comic Book Resources artical on the distrubtion in Aus.

They also have an artical about or by Simon Furman.

Apparently rumor has it that Hasbro is working on a deal with a different company in the UK and Europe to sell Transformers stories over there. Perhapes this is why they pulled the plug on the Dreamwave deal, this also effects the GI Joe book by Devils Due.

Unless Hasbro is planing on making a deal with Marvel, who still is sore about losing the franchise and really battling to get back in the top spot, taken this time by Batman by Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee, it doesn't make much sense. However my thought is that a differnt company in the UK may be makeing a deal with Hasbro and as such Hasbro feels that letting Dimond sell Dream Wave work outside the domain of the US might create, er um, troubles for this other company. That's at least my take. :)

P.S. I turned 21 on the 16 of this month. :)
