They said Comixology would remain independent so expect an Audible-like arrangement: Comixology apps and formats remain mostly unchanged and Kindle adds native support for Comixology format and DRM.
The Comixology indie-pub program may or not be merged with KDP.

This is a typical Amazon buy (The Digital Reader blog saw it coming a mile away); Amazon is interested in comics, Comixology is entrenched and does it better so, instead of a long uphill fight, they buy them. Same as with Audible, Zappos, Diapers.com, etc...
