Book of the Month – Fear Agent Library Edition, Vol. 1
January 27, 2013 11:35 am I'm thrilled this series is finally getting the production value it truly deserves. Dark Horse is now getting all of the individual volumes posted digitally as well.

Marvel’s Great Digital Divide
January 19, 2013 4:01 pm I've been a MDCU subscriber for a couple of years now. I don't really care about the latest and greatest because I'm only a casual reader and have yet to get through all of the back history and events.
They have started to do a much better job at getting full runs going, but I'd love to see better organization around crossovers and events.
I have used the new beta reader on my android tablet, still some bugs to work out but is a considerable improvement over the old reader - and HTML5 based to boot, no more flash. Would love to see something like this from DC as well - also wish I could download issues or trades instead of having to be online all the time.

iFanboy Update: Independence, Goodbye, Hello
January 18, 2013 9:14 pm I also am not a frequent poster, but have been following the podcast since 2009 and at one point went back and downloaded all the prior episodes. With a heavy heart I say best of luck to you Ron, your comic and media interests are very close to mine and I immensely enjoyed the energy which you brought to the podcast - I can't help but laugh every time you do during the show.
You guys got me into comics with your video and audio shows and have kept me coming back. I've listened to other shows and yours is by far my favorite which I continue to download every week. I hope we continue to hear from Ron in the future and have nothing but good things to look forward to with Paul stepping in.
Keep up the great work!

Brian Bendis Wrapping Up His Avengers Run
December 6, 2011 6:02 pm I jumped on board at avengers disassembled, and got involved in comics further from there (not just marvel or superheroes). Great run, sorry to see it end but look forward to new things.

UPDATED: Dark Horse Comics Goes Day and Date Digital; Prices Cheaper Than Print? (No.)
December 5, 2011 9:56 am Would be nice if their app was supported on android, I wonder how much money they are leaving on the table with only an iOS and web apps.

Game Over: Marvel Going Fully Day and Date Digital
November 4, 2011 10:13 am As a MDCU subscriber, I'm hoping that Marvel is finally going to allow subscribers to view their books through their existing app or another app on ALL devices. It is a tragedy that they only recently released an android app, that is a fast growing segment of the tablet and phone market and they were way behind in only supporting iOS.
I've purchased quite a few DC and other books through comixology during their weekly $0.99/issue sales, I hope Marvel does the same.
