May 21, 2012 1:02 pm Thank you for this article. There are many of us who think the same way and I fully support digital over physical. I havent bought a physical comic in a year and I feel relieved to not have comic books cluttering up my desk. Why the fuck cant we get all the benefits that digital promises?? The comic industry is currently coddling a failing direct market when they need to make a real leap of faith soon.

February 6, 2012 12:20 pm thats my only problem too until they finally start discounting subscriptions or something

February 6, 2012 12:14 pm that's a hard argument to make. DC definitely makes bad books too. Just because they sell their bad stories for a dollar less, why do you say they focus on quality over quantity? The way it looks to me is that books with a higher price point are selling less so DC is the real winner when it comes to quantity. Quality is a whole separate argument though

February 6, 2012 12:04 pm Marvels 3.99 price point has stopped me many times from buying their books digitally. i would probably be reading more Marvel than DC if it was affordable but I can't hate them for beating DC with less books sold. The market is not something to love, but you need to respect it.

January 5, 2012 1:20 pm oops, i think its actually out at the end of the month, but still!

January 5, 2012 1:10 pm too much shoujo here. only new thing i wanna read on the list is that CLAMP title. also Adolf is an amazing series that everyone should read. if this can be considered a book, i am very excited for the new digital Shonen Jump coming out weekly starting next week. with about 7 titles in it, this is what DC and Marvel need to watch and learn from.

December 7, 2011 10:32 pm i think Generation Hope has been really fun. She seems plenty important if you read that book.

November 28, 2011 9:19 pm i agree that delays hurt an ongoing series but forgetting about a one-and-done book just makes it even sweeter when you find out its out finally

November 26, 2011 11:59 pm So I bought all of these on a bus ride to new york for less than $6 on my ipad. What this comic did was take an industry which i have held in contempt for so long due to perceived greed and disregard for creativity and made me completely respect it. i have been known to get my comics from 0-day torrents when i was completely broke and couch-surfing, but i felt like complete shit after the final issue. i might be upset at the price-points that will most likely never go down... but its a hobby that takes a lot less money than others out there and i can't imagine a world without comics so i will be careful but i will always buy my comics (and to a lesser extent, manga)

November 22, 2011 5:48 pm how do things like this actually get made?! I love it but its crazy this is coming.
