There've been amazing DC sales in the last year. It's all tied in to current related events for promotion, but when it works out with me getting all of Morrison's Animal Man, 52, Ostrander's Suicide Squad in $0.99 sales, that's cool. They should bundle though. e: With the new announcement of Booster/Beetle stuff, there's definitely going to be a JLI sale upcoming.

Yeah they do have good sales, they are just really infringement. Which is weird, as Marvel does two sales a week.

Oh poo poo, Stray Bullets, it's on my list of things I want to see on sale. It was right there next to Doom Patrol and Astro City. Also, there's another of these Comixology Submit bundles where you get 80 books for ten bucks. I usually pick these as they're a great way to discover stuff I would never have heard of otherwise. Not everything is great but it's nice to see some variety.

bobkatt013 posted:Oh drat yeah that is right. Why not have a sale of Question or all Morrisons DC work? I half expect a sale on the 52 Constantine when the show premieres not Hellblazer which they should have. In order to do a sale on the Question they would have to put all those issues up digitally. Did you know that the first trade of O'Neil's Question run has been out of print for at least 5 years now? All the other trades you can get but not the loving first one.

The Kindle Deal of the Day includes Gotham Central vol. 1 for $2.99. That price is not currently matched by Comixology, I kinda hope it is because I really don't like the Kindle format for reading comics and I'm pretty interested in checking it out-on the other hand I am picking up the Stray Bullets bundle, and I believe that's going to put my Comixology collection over 2,500 titles (which includes a couple omnibuses) so I really don't actually need anything more to read.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Gotham Central on sale at Comixology when the television series premieres, if you're looking for a reason to skip the Kindle version.

Todays Marvel Monday is Secret Avengers. You may think that Brubucker writing a black ops Avengers team would be good would be wrong. Its just there. Then there is Ellis one shots that are pretty good but may have been already purchased as part of the Ellis sale a couple of months ago. The real highlight is the Fear Itself issues. They must be read to believe, as they are unforgettable. The end of the run is done by Remender. I have only read part of it and was wondering if worth getting? The bundle is 35 and I can not say that its worth that.

Sales at last, sales at last, sweet Batman almighty, sales at last! Gotham Central is now on Sale! So fresh off the table that there isn't even a dedicated page for this sale yet. I know you have been waiting for this, I have been waiting for this, a lot have been waiting. And now it is here and it is glorious. In addition we have a No Man's Land outnumbering GC 2:1, don't know what's up with that, as well as tertiary series rounding out the numbers such as Gordon's Law and Turning Points; as well as related various issues of other BatFam comics. Personally I have no idea how these series and issues intersect and overlap, but point being Gotham Central.

Yay! I was waiting for Gotham Central to get a sale  Last time Batman books were on sale, for NML I grabbed the "No Man's Land" #0&1 issues and every issue from Batman, Detective Comics, Shadow of the Bat and Legends of the Dark Knight. I think the major storylines intersected those. Still haven't gotten to reading it yet. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 05:42 on Sep 16, 2014 |

Is there any uh, pared down reading order for No Man's Land? Not sure I really want to spend $85 or read every single issue in it. Why is there no cheaper collected version?

Does Comixology not put the bundles on sale with the individual issues? I've had Gotham Central wishlisted for a while, but I'd much rather have 4 items in my library than 40.

Well, that's a bummer. I bought a bunch of Batman collected editions when they were on sale at the end of July, and tend to pick up a couple during Marvel's frequent sales. Ah well.

In Comixology terms, "Bundles" are groups of individual items you check out at once for a further discount. "Collections" are the digital versions of trade collections. Check em out here https://www.comixology.com/Dynamite...ontent=Dynamite DC tends to only put individual issues on sale with no bundles, Marvel will put on 'collection sales' just for a batch of collections, but tend to not include them when a series goes on sale. Indies (Image, Valiant, Dynamite, etc.) usually do it right and put it all on sale and bundle like in that above example.

A Comixology feature they have no incentive to implement (especially since it would probably not be that easy to code), but which I would love, would be if we could trade in collections for the individual issues contained in them, or vice versa. Charge me a buck to do it, I don't care -- I just want to have all my issues in the same format, after ending up with a mixture based on what's on sale at various times.

A better thing to do would be to allow you to organize your issues in groups.

I wish comiXology let me bag and board and store issues in a long box... But, yeah, "playlists" would be nice. Then you could either organize crossovers how you like or to build a "to read" list or whatever. Or, hell , just favorite things. I liked when you could put books into "storage" on their site, hiding all the little random things you never want to see. That was nice.

I literally don't read anything on Comixology anymore because I can't store everything I want to read on my device at once, and I mistakenly 1) got all the free stuff possible when I first signed up and 2) bought indie packs of #1s and that sort of thing. Now my purchases are a mess and I can't find poo poo.
