Spread at royal flush, intertextuals: Ellis/Cassady, Ellis/Hitch, Waid/Ross, Moore/Gibbons, Moore/O'Neill. E pluribus unum, and the inverse is also true. Eisner is an irreducible part of the body of work referenced, but also a part. The strength of latter-day comics creators has been the bid made to connect a hundred years or more of fiction and sequential art, whilst pressing forward with innovation of the medium.
Eisner gave his name to awards for those creators who've picked up the torch, because he understood that looking backwards for absolute standards by which to judge current and future endeavour is self-defeating. Thus, there are a great many other creators I could have selected five pairs from, but the commonality is that they study and build upon what's gone before with respect, intelligence and fondness.

ie, "We're keeping the money from pre-orders for as long as possible and it'll be redeemable against whatever product the not-yet-signed new TF comics licensee comes out with." Diamond already have stock for some forthcoming comics, as they've already been published—Hasbro have made pre-emptive claim to this stock, so it'll likely either be distributed by them or passed through as part of a new licensing.
Unfortunately (depending on how you look at it) this doesn't guarantee every series and mini-series a conclusion, just indicates that Diamond have made plans to deal with immediately affected orders.
