DC Digital Comics On Ipad

So far, I only knew that to view DC online comics, I can go to Vertigo No. 1. The ones at Vertigo #1 can be downloaded into PDF. Recently, DC Comics has announced a digital publishing initiative that will make its popular comic book titles available through dedicated applications on the iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and through Sony’s PlayStation Network for the PSP.

The company developed its app in conjunction with comiXology, which has developed digital comics apps for a number of comic book publishers, including Marvel.

Titles made available as of Wednesday include Batman: Hush, Green Lantern: Rebirth, Fables: Legends in Exiles and Planetary: All Over the World and Other Stories, with prices ranging from 99 cents to $2.99 per issue. While most of these are backlist titles already available in print, the miniseries Justice League: Generation Lost, is being made available day and date with the print version at the same price point of $2.99.

DC and comiXology also announced that a portion of the revenues from digital comics sales will be used for a Retailer Affliate Program that will benefit owners of brick-and-mortar comic book shops. They also announced that comic book creators also will benefit from and be paid for sales of the digital comics featuring their work.

    It seems like buying the online version is cheaper, but i have checked marvel online comics site but they don’t offer the latest one.

  2. DC Comics has now decided to get on iPad too, and the company has used ComiXology, as did Marvel, to create the app.
