Title: Up to date Digital comics, Marvel
Post by: Tomato on September 19, 2016, 06:13:01 PM
So at my current job, I'm finding myself with... A lot of free time. I would like to use some of that free time to catch up on some of the few comics I've been infrequently reading, but from what I can tell Marvel's Unlimited subscription only maintains up to about 6 months ago. I don't mind paying full price for the individual issues as they come out (which I know DC used to allow, at least with their digital comics service) but I can't tell if I even have that option with Marvel.

Does anyone on here know if there's even an option for buying brand new books (or at least ones about a month out), or if I'm better off just finding other means to get digital comics?

Nevermind, I finally figured it out. The Marvel Unlimited app is a subscription service for comics older than 6 months+ a backlog of older stories, but the "Marvel" app allows you to purchase up to date comics and set up subscriptions. Because it's not like you could have one app that did BOTH, or did something to differenciate the two... Or at least, I dunno, make it so the Marvel app shows up when one searches "Marvel Comics" instead of the 50,000 game apps that flood the app store

The Marvel App (or Marvel Digital Comics Store on the website) is Comixology. It just is, just without the non-Marvel books in the menu. If you buy books and redeem free ones on that service, then log onto Comixology from Comixology.com, those same books will be there.

You do have a point about making the app do both, since Comixology actually just recently added a "Unlimited" feature that's pretty much the exact same thing as Marvel's Unlimited feature.
