Not for stores. Well technically, not for DC either, since they're offer returnability.
Again, I think you're not thinking enough about happen happens to 2 months of comics that you need to get out in a timely manner physically. Even an accelerated release means more shipping, more store space needed to front face them.
we're having a pages long conversation about something that legit isn't going to matter whatsoever in comparison the the emergency we're having. it matters very little what comics stores get when things open up, at what rate they're sent out, how marvel and DC roll them out, w/e. comic shops will order what they think is right, people will buy them or won't and they'll all complain about it online. it'll be business as usual for shops still solvent.
it'll all be surprisingly dull compared to the fact that a large amount of stores can't afford to keep paying rent without having comics to sell. it doesn't matter slighty in comparison to how bad it would be to the overall industry (direct market included!) if comics just stopped for four months. we're talking a huge loss overall in sales after comics come back, stock prices dropping to the point where dc and marvel are laying off creatives left and right, huge turnover in the offices, long-running series going kaput.
it'll be a blessing if everyone's LCS survives to see the day it can complain about having to deal with how it's going to sell batman #93 and #98 at the same time.
