Newsarama.com : DC Digital Graphic Novels Coming... →
This is interesting… Does this mean that Amazon won’t be upgrading the Kindle app on other platforms for color content? If so, I’m disappointed in Amazon! I’m not going to buy a Kindle Fire just to read graphic novels on a 7” screen. But I might buy them to read in my Kindle app on my iPad — if they are available.

Op Ed: Digital Comics Must Be Released At... →
Though the headline and some of the language may be a bit… too unequivocal… I admit I am swayed by Alex Zaiben’s argument for release of digital comics at 12:01 am EST on Wednesday is today’s MTV Geek op-ed. I have been seeing how much comic traffic is being driven to stores by the Twitter and Facebook buzz on Wednesday mornings and it is providing a considerable amount of...

ComicsBeat.com: The New 52 so far by Paul Nomad →
